That's what came with the truck, and I want to use correct military
tires on my truck. Were any other 36x12.5-16.5 LT bias-ply tires used
on the HMMWV? If any other brands are options, I'll consider them. The
Wranglers that came with my 4Runner didn't last very long, and I had
much better luck on it with Kelly and Fisk tires. However, I plan to
use correct military tires on my HMMWV, even if that means I need to
use those lousy Wranglers. I do not plan to switch to the 37" radials;
I would need to replace my wheels with the new 12-bolt ones to do
that.
