TSL radial super swampers

I was thinking about getting 36' Tsl radial super swamper, does anybody know how they ride??? are they anything comparable to a Mud terrian tire, i would like to get them if they were as reasonable as the mud terains as in tire wear and noise levels.

They are more aggressive than most mud terrians like the BFG MT KM and Goodyear MTR, so they will make more noise and ride rougher on the pavement.

i have a buddy who ran the Super Swampers and the Thornbirds. This was on a custom 89 GMC 1500 with a 383 and 4:10 ratio. driving daily he said that between the 2 he was lucky if he got 20,000 miles together. he literally spent 1200 bucks on tires that didn't last a year. he now runs BFG Mud Terrains and has gotten 30k out of them and there is still 10/32's tread remaining. basically what i am trying to say is that the TSL's are great tires......in the mud. however i would not put them on sometihng that i am gonna drive on the highway cuz its like throwing money away.

thats weird, i had 33 thornbirds on my jeep and they would last about 25000, and they had some tread left not enough for my mudding trips but enough for the street, just an observasion
