Default 37" Super Swamper M16 Mounted and in Action!

So I decided to start a new thread regarding my 37" Super Swamper M16 after I have been getting several requests for pics. I went out for some MILD wheeling today and snapped some shots. I just got these mounted on Saturday and so far I can tell you they are super quiet and smooth on the road. My biggest concern so far is getting them to lay out for a full contact patch. Being that they are a 10 Ply tread and 3 Ply sidewall, they are fairly stiff. I am currently down to 26 PSI and am now getting 90% contact, think thats pretty good. THe other nice thing about these tires is that in a 37x13.50x17 size they weigh in at a lightweight 78 LBS. I tipped the scale at 107 LBS fully mounted and balanced.

They look good. Where did you get them? Were they pricey?

Thanks guys... I really like the look. Yes they are radial tires, and yes, the 37's are a 10 Ply 3 Ply set-up.
I bought these at 4 Wheel Parts as they beat the cheapest price I found on the net. Got them for $360 a tire.
I did my fair share of research on tires and these seem to get rave reviews from the guys that gave them a shot. Also was told 40K is not out of the question if rotated properly. That is great if its true cause these guys are super grippy!

Nice looking tires!! I may have to give these a try since my Pro Comps have been discontinued.
