I have a set of 38.5x14.5x16.5 thornbirds now. they are by far the longest lasting swampers ive had. ive had tsl's and tsl sx's. ive only got about 16000 miles out of both of them. my thornbirds have thirty on them now and its about time for some new ones. still plenty of tread but my front end isnt exacly aligned right so they wore uneven. im fixin to goto a solid axle swap and try boggers so we'll see about them too.

I had 33" t-birds on a bronco. I went with the35" BFG MT, I think the bfg worked better with the mud and snow, they keep clean and have better traction, the t-birds do have a nice bite from the side lugs, and they look cool. I just thought the BFG made a better off road tire, and the tred ware is good. just my 2 cents, hope this helps
