    Tread design looks a lot like the old SuperAllTraction. A very good directional tire,Dad bought 53M38A-1's Jeep just to rob the new Supers off of it and resell the Jeep.

    Town Fair Tire got them for me. Guy was a bit confused and they had a hard time mounting tires with tubes. You can look up locations on their site.
    I was going to order them online. I found a place that had a great price and shipping was like $11 a tire to me but I hesitated and a couple of days later it jumped to $42 a tire. Town fair matched the price including the shipping but mounting and stuff was free. I think they gave me a bit of BS though.
    I like the tires although I don't think they mounted them correctly. I'll get them checked out elsewhere later.

    I'm happy.

    Try M.E. Miller Tire (http://www.millertire.com/). Check out show/swap meet link, if a meet is near where you live, phone 'em up and they'll put your tires on the truck and you pay no shipping! They've got NDT 16" in 7.00 and 7.50.
