I've got Dunlop Radial Rover RTs in 750R16 on the 109. They're very nice --
quiet, good in rain, good in mud. They're pinned for studs, if you're into
that. They are load range D, but 2400 pounds per wheel should be quite
enough. They've also got a speed rating of R (170 kph).
They were about 95 a piece, which was quite a bit less than anything else I
found in 750X16.
