The m16 are mid 500s... that's what I don't want to do though is regear. Needed it in my last truck bad. It would sit too low rpms on the highway. Then down shift hard to speed up. Then shift again then slow down. It was a nightmare. That itself is enough for me to keep the 37s. Thanks for that heads up. That puts a hault on that!

I only know of one truck with the M-16s on them and from what I saw the compound on those tires looks pretty soft. I ran the Trxus MTs for two years before I picked up my current set of Goodyear MTR's which I absolutely love, they have lasted for three years with some pretty heavy daily on road and off-road abuse.

My 37x12.5r17 mtr's ride pretty bad on the road.

Really...is there that much difference between the 35 and 37's ??

I bet I just need mine to get re-balanced, or drop some psi. But its like I can feel every tiny pebble on the road, not big bounces, but alot of small vibrations and bounces.

That's odd. But I must agree that the thread and spaces between them look much bigger on the 37's than the 35's like they didn't resize them to fit the 37's might have to check one in person and see.

A lot of us So Cal people run BFG KM2's, they are quiet on the road, good off road, and seem to last awhile. Not overly expensive too. As for how they handle in ice and snow I can't say....

I'm not a fan of the km2. Was looking at them for my last truck and decided not to get them because they do poor in snow. I got cooper stt and love them. If Istick with 37 iI'll get them and ditch the nitto trail grapplers I have. If I jump to a 40 though that limits what tires are available and at that point for sure not the km2 because they want 875$ for that tire in a 40" hah
