super swamper tires

[jackal]

Anyone running super swamper LTB tires? How are they on the highway? hard to handle, noise , wear, balance, rough riding like a bogger? let me know because I like the looks of the 34 x 10.50 x 15 's. But I want to know the truth and not a magazine article. You guys always shoot straight with me. I am glad I didn't get the thornbirds.

Sorry no luck with me, I saw get the Yoko MT's But I am really biased!

They don't ride very well, but what do you expect from a 34" bias ply tire as aggressive as a swamper. The onroad ride is a trade-off for the best offroad traction available, so the final decision is yours.

If you want compromise, go with the TSL Radial in the 33x10.5" size.

so the tsl radial is the better for dual purpose ? Thanks bounty.

I have 33x15.5x15 Interco Super Swamper on my 76 CJ-7.
I wouldn't recommend them for any street use.
They are extremely noisey, ride terrible, & wear even worse.
Great off road tire though!

I've got a neighbor with a big Ford with a lift and some big metric sized TSL Radials. He says he loves them but he doesn't take it on the highway much.

Yes, the TSL Radial is a pretty good dual purpose tire, more aggressive than most MT's while maintaining a decent street ride. You give up a little performance in the rain and snow on the road, but it's minimal. Just have to decide what's important to you.
