susper swamper

I have ordered some Q78x16 super swamper TSL. A local 4 wheel drive place told me they were same as 35x12.50. I was wondering if anyone can help me and tell me if they are that size? And also has anyone ever run this size, I would like to know around how many miles did you get out of them.

offroad,

Buckshot mudders used to come sized like this. I think the Q78 was around 36" tall. Good luck, Rich.

TSL's are awesome offroad but they are loud and dont last long on road. But they look good...

Out of curiousity, what made you go with the ol' Q78...why not just the 35x12.50x16 SSR...its practically the same tire, and 4 wheel & offroad mag. rated the SSR above the TSL for on and offroad use.

But Tsl's do look good...you'll like em...

The reason why i got the Q78 over the ssr's is the price. Q78 $175 each but, the ssr's $250 each thats a big difference. I just hope the tires look good on the 4" lift and 16x10 wheels.

Cool tls vs ssr

tsl are very good tires but on the road they are extremly loud and wear very quick if you drive alot or for long periods at a time. i have the ssr's 37\12.5\16.5 and i don't like them very much my truck rides really rough and though don't give good traction on either dirt or street. my tls kick butt offroad but when it got wet on the roads it got alittle scary.
