Doesn't look like a Centipede, slightly different tread.  The lugs alternate and the sidewall tread is a bit different, too.  It's not an Interco either.  Lots of custom cuts.

It doesn't look like they air down wherever they are.  Some lower gears for the transfercase migth have helped as well.

Not a centipede but I would say it is a simex. Maybe the Jungle or Jungle II.

I would agree with needing deeper gears and lower air pressure are needed for that guy.

Jungle Trekker II.  It had that weird longitudinal sidewall tread.
