Default INTERCO Super Swamper M16 All Terrain

Hope it's not a re-post.

Anybody ride the new M16? Would love to see them on my Unlimited. My JK has 4.10 with 35's BF Mud. They dont make them in 35. I wonder how the 295/70/17 would look on my Rubicon with 3'' lift kit

Default Thank's for the posts

Nice shoots on your rubicon.

Can wait to see these tires up close. Anyone with a post of 37''?

Love that setup! I have heard load range "E" tires can provide a rough ride. I assume based on your comments that hasn't been an issue for you? Have you noticed a "rougher" ride since gettin those meats?

No, it' actually much smoother than my BFG mud terrains were.

Here's a close-up......

Good info thanks. Did you have the BFG KMs or KM2? I have the KM2 on order now but they are sitting at 4WP waiting for my wheels so I still have time to change them. I drove them on a test drive and thought they were pretty mild on the street. Haven't drove the Original KMs. Thinking of the M16 or Cooper STT since they come in that nice 295/70R17 size (33.3-33.5") and arent as expensive as Toyo.

I had the KM's. I can't speak for the KM2's. It's a cool looking tire though!

I'm running the SS-M16's with an OME lift, and find the ride nearly identical to stock.
