super swamper LTB from tirepackage.com

Hey everyone. I've been debating on what tires to get and where to get them from since i did my TG 3 inch sas. i found a website called tire package and they have pretty good prices . i can get a set of super swamper ltb in 35 12.50 15 for about 1100 shipped to my door. I do drive my pickup to work every day, but its maybe a 5 mile round trip and the speed limit is only 35 all the way there. 99 Percent of the time the pickup is on the trail. do you think these tires would be good? I've never seen anyone run the ltbs, but almost all my wheeling buddies run the tsl swampers. is tire package legit? Are the ltbs any good? How close are they to being a true 35 12.50?

The LTB's wear out FAST... Ask me how I know.
Spend a little more and get TSL's or radials.

Do you know how many miles you got out of them? How much did you drive them on pavement? I only drive my truck at most 5 miles a day. actuallyy less then that cus it takes a little less then ten minutesto get to work going 25-35 mph.

The lasted less than a year. At the time I only put about a 100 miles a week on the truck. The compound is real soft, great for rocks, and pulled like crazy in the mud. But on the road, I swear I could see them wearing out.

The short trip will guarantee that they are never really warmed up, and so they'll probably ride pretty rough to and from work, if that bothers you. But with the welded rear you'll probably wear through any tire pretty quickly. I'd try your best to rotate them often if you decide to go with them.
