super swamper ltb's or tsl's

i am wanting to get new tires and i was thinking of getting the ltb or tsl tires. i just wanted some feedback on them. any ups and downs will be appreciated. im looking at 31*10.50*15 for the tsl and 31*11.50*15 for the ltb. they will be going on a 1985 pickup with a 2 inch shackle lift. would 32 inch tires fit? i like to be going on trails and rocks up at hungry valley in socal. thanks for any input.

The TSL and LTB are the same tread pattern. The LTB treads are longer making them more aggresive. TSL are avaliable in radial while LTBs are bias belted. Both tires get flat spots after overnight parking, but it goes away after tires warm up. The tread on both are soft and will wear fast. My brother runs 34x10.50 LTBs and they are awesome in the NC red clay and sand. These sticky tire are great in Rocks too but unstopable in the Mud
A 32"tire should fit your setup, what is your current tire size? Just keep a sawzaw handy

I'd purchase the TSL's. A buddy has the 32x11.50's on his Taco and he loves them. He says they own on the rocks

I have 34" LTB's with only a 2" body lift. I love 'em. They're pretty rough on the road but they rock in the mud (I haven't been able to play on the rocks yet).
