im in need of new tires. right now the gsa that came withthe H1 have like 3000 miles left id guess. and i wanted the bfgoodrich mud terrain t/a km which i had on my f-250 in the 37 and in the same rim size as the hummer 17" rim i, but now it looks like they dont even make that tire in 37" anymore, so that being said, i need a nice good mud and street tire because all thats in florida really is mud, and i drive it almost daily on the street so any suggestions on a good tire for me, i was lookin at the wrangler mt. or the goodrich mud terrain t/a km2 but its more of a crawler tire, or maybe the interco m16 looks awesome but haven't heard its performance yet and its comes as a 13.5 width and not a 12.5 so im wondering if there would be any rubbing with it

thanks for any help

Jake

I have heard pretty good things about it. Here is a review I found http://hummertruckworld.tenmagazines.com/articles.asp?page=tenarticle&aid=3636

Pretty much anything super swamper makes in a radial will last a long time and throw a ton of mud... and you get the nice mud tire noises on the highway. I love listening to boggers wear out... haha.
