Well, I have a set of 32" TSL radials on my zuki that are getting close to ten yr's old now. They still have some decent tread left.

I have the 32x10.50/15 Radial super swampers on my 2dr.
They're lasting okay but they just don't balance out worth a darn
and kill mileage
For a daily Driver, I'd go with the BFGs M/Ts (for which I also have)

my brother is running 32 10.5s Swampers radials on his yota, hes had them for about 5 months, they still have great tred on them.  he normally runs them at 10 lbs on on the trails, he can just creep through most anything, and when things do get sticky just hammer down and they clear out and pull right through it.

I do agree they are pretty un balanceable, the ride isnt the best.

deffinatly BFG M/Ts if your DDing it, my boss has 33's and the tire is lasting a long time and its a good ride.

my radials balance perfectly and also ride better and are quieter then the cooper stt muds i had before.   this is my dd and i would not change this tire for anything but the same thing just bigger.

I'm with bzzr2, I have used a set of 31-9.50 TSL radials on my silver tracker and it rode great and they were able to be balanced just fine with no hint of wobble at any speed. As long as you keep the alignment within spec, they should last a long time.

I also ran Super Swamper TSL Radials, 31x 9.5. They did use quite of bit of weights but were balanced nonetheless. Rode good, seem to last well.

i just installed a set of interco's truxs m/t's on my buddies s10 today. pretty sweet tire and good in the snow - better than his studded cooper discoverer s/t's. the tread is not as chunky as the swampers but still a great tire.
