Super Swamper 38 12.50 16.5 $785 shipped

I think I found a deal on these on the internet. I have looked for a while and this is the best I can find. Any one found them cheaper?

Sounds like a good deal.
Which Super Swamper?

Putting them on a trail ride or a driver?

I didnt realize that I didnt put the kind on the post. Sorry. They are the bias ply TSL's.

I guess the truck will be some of both. I am building it for a hunting rig but I may drive it every day for a while, at least long enough to work out all the bugs.

Here is a link to pics of the truck that they will be going on.

Definitely a good find.

Will this be your first set of large bias-ply tires on a daily driver?
How much lift and/or cutting are you looking at doing?
Steering mods planned?

Should look sweet when you get it done.

I have run several sets of the old buckshot co-ops in the past. I dont plan on this being a daily driver for long, just long enough to get to know the truck and find all the bugs. The truck has a 6" lift, fenders cut and flares installed so I should be able to run them as is. I hope to do a crossover steering job in the near future. This truck wont see any hard core wheeling. I mostly need a tall truck to access some property I own. The water gets pretty deep during the winter. Most of the roads a decent but there is about a mile of deep mud I have to cross to get to my place. I just need to be able to ease in and out during hunting season.
