I searched for something ag/industrial for quite a while, but failed (something I'm pretty good at) to find something suitable. Had I made it to SEMA last year, chances are good that I would've found several options, but I failed in accomplishing that, too.

Well, there's technically only a 200-lb. margin per tire on a 16,000-lb. SEE, but I've been assured by the owner of Interco that there's a healthy margin in that tire's load rating. I was primarily concerned with the big lateral loads they can be subjected to when scooting the rear end around...

I have one set of 39.5x16.50-20 Pitbull Rockers on 2-inch widened wheels, and am about to mount a set on 40x13.5-20 Super Swamper TSL II tires on stock 20x11 wheels. Like peakbagger, I have no need for more ground clearance, but wanted less contact pressure (with the 16.50s) on one SEE, and...

The Michelins that come on a SEE are 12.5R20.

Ah, I had no idea that's what the SEE was designed for. I thought it was for the big sandbox. Then the Michelins being the tire of choice makes even less sense to me. You may not consider yourself an offroader, but it sounds like you do more of it than the majority of decked out four wheel...

Peakbagger, here I would respectfully disagree. Completely. For driving over rocks and punji sticks I would much rather be on bias ply tires, with their inherently better conforming carcasses and stronger sidewalls. Radials have their place, and while the SEE's Michelins aren't a good example...

It's suggested that R1 ag tires are run "in reverse" for better tread life on pavement, so it makes sense that any chevron pattern would benefit from it. There's another reason for running the fronts backwards; when/if you get the SEE into a compromised situation and need to back out of trouble...
