Is anyone out there runing some Super Swamper TSL Radials? I am going to be getting some tires within the next few months, and want to get some opinions on them. 85% of my driving is on the street.
If you have them or have runs these tires before, please let me know...
How many miles you got from them, were they really hard to balance, and would you run them again...

Thanks for the reply...I am not to worried about the noise, I would rather have a loud tire that works than a quiet one that just looks good...

Buddy of mine has some 33" Super Swamper TSL Radials on his truck(98 Ram) and they are great. Very good on the road and they suprised me a lot in the mud and wet grass. Very good tire IMO. Not that loud on the road either.

I run 33" TSL Radials on my 2002 Quad. So far I have gotten about 7000 miles and still 70% tread. They are great in mud and snow, and have very good wet weather traction. My only complaint is the noise. They are extremely annoying, especially with the windows up. Email me with any questions. Matt

if you are spending 85% of your time on the street, i would probably get a proComp Xterrain, or a BFG M/T, or even a Buckshot(i dont like them though, cause i dont like the word buckshot on my sidewall:) )
But anyways, i run Mickey Thompson Baja Claw Radials, and so far I love them, they aren't very loud, thena gain my flowmaster drowns them out, and they are very good in mud, but I haven't seen how long they will last yet though.
Good luck on your decision though.
