Anybody know the tread depth on new 11.00R16 Michelin XL's and XZL's?

Got a line on some but I'm confused by the guy's ads as to how much tread they have left.
 
Check your PM's in a minute.

As far as militarytires.com goes...I've found them to be unhelpful and their info innaccurate. They also seem to think their stuff is gold. Half their stuff is retreaded as well...which they don't advertise on their rudamentary site. I refuse to buy products from people who won't answer basic questions.

On the XL it's 17/32's

And XZL comes in 11.00R20 according to this chart.

The tread depth is 23/32's on these.

Yep, think I'm going with the XL's. 17/32nds isn't as deep as I was expecting but that also means the "nearly half inch" of tread isn't all that worn down.

Thanks CDA! Now my eyes hurt though...

My XL's have about 15/32's tread left on them and I don't think I'll ever wear these tires out!

I'll e-mail you the charts if you want me to.
 
Sure, wouldja?

They'll be useful to have. Interesting that it doesn't show 11.00R16 XZL's.
 
I have a chart that shows info on the XZL's in 9.00 and 11.00 as well on my other computer. I'll post it up tomorrow.
