i had a set of 36x14.50r15 on an 84 full size blazer. they were great in the mud and sand. just LOUD 
. but, what super aggressive tires aren't? bad thing is they wore out around 18K miles on a DD. but i got about 25K outta them (past the useful tread life though). if i could afford them and gears i'd buy them again... and maybe an egine swap, they're HEAVY too. far as road handling, what can i say, they are true mud tires. no sipping.... slip n slide in wet weather.

not sure, never ran boggers. i'll be running the LTBs this weekend though.
..."reasonable price"..... the cheapest i found them for was $300 each + tax + mounting & balancing, etc. if ur looking for dedicated mud tire, its the one IMHO. good luck & post pics

I owned a set in the mid 90's. I would not purchase another set, unless I had some concrete information that the tire compound has been changed over the years.
They were ridiculously hard. They hardly flexed at all, even at single digit pressures. They were louder than most comperable tires. For a light vehicle (Jeep) that sees street and trail duty I would look elsewhere.
For a fullsize truck that sees alot of mud and some street driving they are not a bad tire, as they wear better than most over size tires and do fairly well in the soft stuff.
