Mud Tires, Co-op

Question #1,
Has anyone tried to fit these tires or others of similar size on the non-lifted '78 F250?

Co-op
900-16LT D GRIP SPUR

Question #2,
Buckshot is the name of the tire up to what, 36"?
After 36" they're called Swampers?

Don't know about the co-ops. As far as buckshots and swampers, they are brands, not sizes.

Co-op tires

I think that Kelly makes the specific tread design and sells it under the co-op name.
The same tread tire but larger gets the name Buckshot.
Even larger and they sell it under the brand name Swamper.

I think therefore I'm guessing.

A normal "78" series tire that is a 9.00x16 will be about 30 inches tall, so it will fit.

Buckshots are made by Denman. After 36" they go by Gumbo Mudders, still made by Denman. Super Swampers are made by Interco, a completely different tire. FYI, you can clear a 33x12.50 under a stock 78 4x4 F250.
