There was an article on here about shops selling tires as new yet they were 7 or more years old. Old tires are much more likely to have a blow out.

I think if you spend the money on those tires you are gonna be sick when you are replacing them in a couple months and trying to give those things away. I bet that D load rating tire rides way rougher than any E load M/T you can find.

I think you would be better off buying a set of blems, or even used tires over that. If you are completely sold on getting a military tire, why don't you look into some of those humvee tires. I think they are all goodyear MTR and Michelins at least. Just my .02

How much do they cost? You could use a couple as a trailer tire. Trailer wheels come in 6.5" width too.
