Ok guys, Im looking at tirs right now. And i want a 32x11.50-15. I like the swamper LTBs but i drive the highway about once a week. I have friends with them on yotas and they wear pretty good. But a Ranger weighs a little more. I dont care about the noise they make, im more worried about how long they last, and I wheel the truck alot. So any imput would be nice. Thanks guys.
 
You're very limited in size. You'll have to either get 31x11.5, 33x13.5 or 34x10.5 to stay in your height range.
 
I had buddy in high school who had 'em on his yota. He loved 'em in mud, snow, everything offroad. On the street they were load as hell, vibrated the whole truck. They actually lasted him about 6 months and he did lots of highway driving. Like you said you only drive on the street once a week, I would get 'em.
 
I just mounted a set so I would buy them.:D Having said that they do wear out quickly from my friends experiences, but they are cheap, aggressive and dig like crazy. I used 6oz of bb's per wheel to balance them but have yet to take it out. I'm going wheeling with it next weekend so I post up about my experiences then.
 
I'm looking at set of 34's for my truck when it's done...

I know Pat/Totalled run's 34's on his BII....
 
Look at the Radial Swampers. I just pulled a set of 32x10.5x15's off my Explorer. They do real well off-road and wear good with street driving

I bought these last Sept and just pulled them off. :3gears:
 
I have the 33-13.50-15 LTB's and have cose to 45,000 miles with right at half tread left. I would recommend the LTB's
 
I just measured my 34/10.5/15 what a bunch of crap, they measured out to 32" on a 8" wide rim. My wornout 33" BFG are the same height. Now I realize most tires are not the stated height on the sidewall but 2"? Had I known there would have been such a discrepancy I would of ordered 35" MTZs atleast then I would have gotten a 34" tire.:pissedoff:
 
yeah, it's a Interco thing..

My 34s measured to 32.5 unmounted when new. They look like a tall 33 on the rig though...

i had about 15000 miles on my 34" LTBs before i sold my truck and it was only down to a lil over half tred, they felt like i had a parachute attached to the back of my truck on the highway tho with the 2.9, had to stay in 4th to stay at 55 even with 4.56 gears, 5th on downhills :)

I pulled my LTB's off the truck tonight and what do you know they measure about 33.4" pretty much what it says on interco's site. I never thought it would make such a difference with the tires on the truck verses no weight on them.
 
Hey totalled:
Do you have any rubbing on the B2 with your set up? is there any body lift with the 4" susp, or just the trimming. I'm trying to figure out the cheapest/lowest way to put 33s on my B2.
 
i have run every swomper out, and im sticking with the TSL radial just because i drive it every day. it was a huge differance going to the radial's. and they last way longer.
