Has anybody ran these tires or know anybody that has? I'm thinking very seriously about trying a set of them out. My pros are 10.50 width , relativily cheap, and 27/32th tread. my cons are swampers are know to wear fast due to soft rubber, and they are bias ply. What is you alls opinion of these tires?

I would not even consider a bias ply tire if your JK is your daily driver.

If you live in a colder climate they bounce like hell for the first couple of minutes driving on them and there noisy as hell.

I ran a set of thornbergs on my old 97 TJ they were the same way for a couple miles in the mornings it's no terribly cold here in the south the noise I can handle I use to run gateway buckshots on all my old fords and they sing bad on a 6000# truck Just wonder what kinda mileage I can get out of them before I have to replace them? I really like the 10.50 width just not any options in a 35" tire in that width

Well, if you've owned a set of turdbirds you have already experienced the worst tires ever produced in the history of mankind. The LTB's will be better than those.

I had a set of Thornbirds on my old Jeep for 14 years. And those suckers sat for several years, got hit by a weedeater every week for 10 years, never lost air.

Dog pissed on Aluminum wheel so much it chemically bonded to the hubs in the front. Eventually had to take a cutting wheel to the tirea and wheels to get them off.

Had to finally replace tires because Tow Truck slid his loading flat bed onto bottom 1/4 of tire and kept hammering the bar and sliced through my rears.

The thornbergs were not my choice the we're on my TJ when I bought it and had not been rotated Like they should have been. I never ha any trouble out of them they rode alittle rough never shook or any thing like that

I had a set of Bias TSLs on my Cherokee and it was my DD. They flat spot REALLY bad. You're better off getting the 34x10.50R17 SSR.
