As I said earlier, there were some jeeps outfitted with the civilian tires. I even saw a set over at 2VP.
I am pretty sure that once a CO's driver would do a 360 with the CO in the Jeep, the CQ/Maint would be ordered to supply the commercial tires rather than the non-directionals. They were 100 times better on the slippery roads.

One only has to look at the tread pattern left on the ground after a jeep rolls by. It is usually only a snake looking mark from the center of the tire.

I could especially understand those tires on a M151A2. They were very easy to lose control of. My personal Mutt had them for the decade or so that I owned it.
