Tires Deestone?

But people don't like change, and no one knew what "load range E" meant, so they often included the old number of plies rating as a reference (often in parenthesis, which are used to differentiate a reference from a spec on prints).  So as Joe Friday said, these tires likely do not have 10 plies.

But still, they are load range E tires, which means that only one is needed to support the entire weight of a Jeep (with safety factor!).  Stronger is often good, but these tires are going to be STIFF on a lightweight Jeep, which, as already noted, will mean that they will not ride well, no matter how many plies they actually have.

I’ll agree with NCtoy.  I’m running the Interco narrow super swampers in 34x9x16, tho and they are rated at 6 ply.  Essentially no sidewall flex even with 0 psi.  I run 10 psi to keep them on the rim because the original KH wheels have no safety hump to help keep the bead set.  I run on the highway WOT at about 50-53 mph and can tell no difference at 10 psi vs say 25 psi.  In reality, if I ran 35-40 psi I might be able to run 55 mph, but I’m speculating.  Also, I did not balance my tires.  I asked the guy to just see what it would take to balance one and so he put it on the machine and it was going to require 1lb of weights to balance!!!  So I’m running them unbalanced.  Point is, I can certainly tell no difference in tire pressure or balance on the street at Willys speeds.  It doesn’t ride any different either way.  The BIG issue is no sidewall flex for off-roading. I’m going to be working on that , however.

And, btw, I like the look AND price of those tires.  Like Stan said, I might go for the smaller tire, tho.
