Title: Swamper LTB
Post by: ZukiDuke on April 06, 2005, 02:57:30 PM
Hey I'm a FNG here. Got a few quick questions. 1) who has run LTB's and how did you like them 2) Has anyone run the 31 x 11.50 on a trackick before and what did you have to do to fit them.

LTBs are a great off road tire, they
do excellent in soft dirt, sand and mud,
I think they are a little less than great
on rocks, but the soft compound does
reasonably well, and might even help
presurve your axles on the slickrock
in moab, driving on slickrock is about
like driving on the street in 4 low

I never had any size other than the
33x13.5-15 so I don't know how the
31s will be

Thats good news to hear because I will mostly be using them for mud and loose pack trails. Not many rocks in my woods to climb. I will be using these tires for about 50/50 street/offroad.

love em. I am running the 31x11.5 they are soft and will wear fast but they are cheap so who cares. I am running the Rocksteady kit from Rockyroad which is a 2" body lift and 2.5 suspension and they sort of fit. A little trimming in the front is needed to clear the large outside lug when turning.  Not the best on the rocks but not bad. Like any swamper they dig holes in the soft stuff and make that coool sound when you lock them up on pavement!

i run ltb's they r awsume offroad on road leaves something to be be desired like a smooth ride. they weren't made for the street they r an offroad tire capable of street use. plus u can't beat the price.

If you're using them mainly for mud, the narrower TSL's would do better in deep mud and on the road if you get the radial version...

im running them and their great in all conditions , and i had no problems at moab on the slickrock. i run 5psi offroad and 15psi on road ,i could probably go lower pressure offroad but they hook up great ,just a little stiff. and it takes a wile to work the flat spots out after its ben parked for a few days.
