If it has 16" rims, they should work. Best make sure they're not dry rotted
and DOT approved if you're going to hit the road at all.

They will clear fine BUT:
The last military vehicle to use the 9.00X16 was the M715 5/4 ton truck 4X4.
That truck left military inventory in the early 70's replaced by the M880
and M890
series 5/4 tons made by dodge, basically a modified dodge D-200 and it had
10.00 X 16.5
tires, and they were not NDT.
The NDT tires are not tubeless, and will not work on rims designed for
tubeless tires,
the bead is different. The M715 used split rims, the rims were six lug,
stud size was 1/2".
They are lousy on pavement and even worse on wet roads, think slicks in the
rain
They are skinny as hell, and memory says the diameter was 29" (I got short
legs,
and could straddle them when repairing them)
They do not handle high speeds, the M715 had a top end of 58 mph, max convoy
speed was 50 mph, or what ever the slowest vehicle was capable of back
then.
The M151 series 1/4 ton truck used 7.00 X 16 tires.
The M35 series 2 1/2 tonners used 9.00 x 20 tires.

Thanks for the replies!
I guess I will stick with the more conventional tires.
