anybody every run, or heard anything about these New Advance 37x12.50R16.5 tires I see Bigfoot military tires selling? my googlfu is coming up with nothing... looks like it could be a decent street tire.... obviously the selling point is it's a 16.5....

I would check if these are USA or China made. I have seem some Chinese knockoffs of military Michelin XML tires.
Alibaba lists the Humvee military style tire made by Qingdao Aotai Rubber Co.

What's the difference between these and the Goodyear MT 's that the military ran for years on the Humvees? They look the same to me.

I ran these on my m1009. I thought they were a great street tire. I put 50,000 miles on a set. Only replaced them because I found a real good deal on the same tires with good tread and winter was coming. I could have done another 10,000 miles I'm sure.

I had mine internally balanced and they only vibrated at 35 mph. They were smooth on the highway at 70
