Default new tire/rim combo maybe?

So I used my spare tire on my trailer, it has same wheel bolt pattern and same size as stock tires and had a flat while driving across state, and so i was in the new tire market..decided to pick up this combo, i might run the tires/wheels when my tires need replacing. here they are:

it looks like a bfg A/T...



same tread pattern as BFG A/T...

But its a TreadWright PUMA, retread tire, its my spare right now so i can test it and stuff and compare to my Grabber AT2s

Only difference to me from my BFG A/T is the swirly line in the middle of the tread

i bought my rim for $39, the 16x8 was $49. you could change to those rims and never worry about finding the right tire again
