Check out this link please. Anyone ever seen or heard of these tires? They look aggressive but never heard of them. There were no prices on the site either. I would call but a little long distance from afghanastan. If anyone has seen prices let me know please.

Real popular tire down under, they run tall and skinny. AFAIK, they are not DOT approved and are not available in the US.

They look good... but they are skinny in the Centipede V1, and fat in the Centipede V2... the regular Centipede is a regular A/T tire or so it looks... did you see the Jungle?? OMFG Batman...

If you have a chance, pick up a LandRover magazine (or any British 4x4 mag) and they will have a number of Simex tire ads in there. I know they are popular in Thailand with the Suzuki people, typically running 33" and 34" Simex's.
Here's some pics:

Not available in NA as far as I know. I believe the Q78 series Swampers would be close to these.

Interco makes a tire that is similar called the LTB. It is the skinny design that is very popluar in Aussie Land. They are available in the US unlike the Simex's you posted about.
