hope you didnt pay very much for them. They will last for ever on the road due to being very hard compound, but they dont work in the dirt very well.

Hummer tires, yes.

Mounted, no. It's new & for some reason it 's buldging.

Na, since these are 16.5's.

Na, they were cheap & I couldn't pass it up. If I don't like them, I can always sell them.

This has been a recent topic on pirate, Interco has already told us that they will not be phasing out the 16.5" rimmed tires.

just remember 16.5's dont have a safety bead like other size rims so if you air down to wheel you will lose beads ALOT easyer.

they could be a good tire, but the compound and sidewalls are way to hard and stiff.
