ive never seen them on a rig before. is there a big cost difference between the 9.50, 10.50, 12.50? also some states your tires have to be covered by the wheel well/ or fender flares. that would be a definite advantage, little bit more expensive tires or extra 400ish on flares. my 12.50's sit about 3-4" past my fenders.

This would be a good choice for a vehicle that doesnt see much road travel. Asphalt and TSL's rubber compound dont necessarily work hand in hand, then you also have the Bias ply construction.. another disadvantage on the asphalt.

If one were to need a tire they could depend upon, had limited road travel to get on the dirt/trail this could be a good selection.

well, I have only been able to find them in 34.9x9.50-15LT, 9/34-16LT and 34.9x9.50-16.5LT... and as for price im not exactly sure. $180-230 a piece would be my guess....

A fellow club member has them on his CJ in the 34" flavor & he is very agressive & unstoppable on the trails.

My friend has 34x9.5-15s on his Wrangler and they are awesome offroad. I personally run the LTBs in the 34x10.5-15 size and am very pleased with how good they are. They have helped me through more thick gooey mud/clay than I should have ever gone through. The LTB is more aggressive than the TSL.
