Super Swamper LTB's
ok so im looking at some new tires that are alittle more aggressive, i was considering 35's but i noticed that these come in a 34x10.5 which caught my eye, im not big on the wide tire thing so the whole 10.5 wont bother me, i was just curious about this tire, how is it?? anything good or bad would be much appreciated

LTB's are not a street tire by any means. Yes, they are DOT for on road use, but you'll be disappointed with the life, noise, gas mileage and ride of them on the street.

Some guy at Lowes told me his claws got louder than his big V8 chebby exhaust did when they wore down, so he got the BFG mts
Also, if you're interested in rock crawling or the likes (guess that's why you're looking at the LTBs) try to find a set of Moab Edition BFG M/Ts... super soft compund that wears just like the regular ones. Made special for Moab.

They're made by Cooper Tire, which has always made them for M/T, but now actually owns M/T. From what I've heard, they are on the same "core" as the Discoverer series truck tires (which is a very reliable core -- I've used Cooper Discoverer S/T's for years). The outer sidewall and tread treatments are unique to the M/T line which is what distinguishes it from the other Cooper offerings.
Being built on a heavily mass-produced core means that they have an "economy of scale" which holds the price down. I'm thinking about the MTZ's for my next set of 35's for my truck.

mtzs are far from cheap. they do however have one hell of a hard sidewall. another tire that is sometimes a pain in the ace to mount. and they also dont really come in anything less wider than a 13.50, but i think 15.50 is the promonant size.
edit, just found them in the conventional sizes most people go for. not so expensive there.
