I was thinking of running a 13/36-16 TSL Swamper on 6.5 wide stock rim on my Dodge M37. Do you guys think the tires will wear poorly on this narrow a rim? Steet, snow, and mud use.
The Q78-16 TSL is designed for the 6.5 wide rim but I'd like alittle wider tire for flotation since the truck weighs in at about 5800lbs.

5,800lb trucks don't float. PERIOD. Get the Q78's & never look back.

I guess I will encounter poor tire wear using Hummer rims and 15/39.5 Swampers on the street also? The K30 see's about 50% of it's time doing street time or highway time to get to the trail.

On an unrelated note, you're way off. I'd take all the flotation afforded to me with 44" boggers and 16" wide wheels on my 6000 pound truck anyday, vs digging for china with Q78's. However, this is bottomless mud and muskeg, not puddles and trail slop.
