Are these XLs 14.00-20 or 16.00-20?

I wish they still made these Michelin XLs because I like their military only style. Sure, NDTs are mainly a military only tire but for larger tires the XZLs look like an oversized civilian mud tire that you see on cranes, large fire trucks, airport snowplows, etc. Don't get me wrong, I like the XZLs and would run them but I think I like the XLs more (aesthetically speaking).

I’d say 14.00x20.

I can get remolded 14.00 XLs made to order. We use xzl casings

Interesting...do they also do that for 16.00s?

How does the cost compare to new or 90% tread xzl?

They are 500ea. Can do 1600s in xl or xzl. They are also stamped with a new dot code and come with a 3yr warranty

Good to know, thanks. I might have to send my wife out for a second job...

At least there is a viable solution to continue with a great off road rubber design. And while there are still useable cases it will be an option.

I agree with the aggressive, tough look of the rubber. And sipping would add to their effective use on and off road.

Here's an M813 on 16.00s just for fun.

I'd venture to say that sand pic is worn down 16's. Sidewall looks same height as the pic just above this post, but with less tread depth.

More 809s on XLs. I just can't help myself
