I have seen them in person..
They are heavy weightwise,
the sidewalls are physically thick and difficult to flex
I reckon at least 5 times thicker than the tyres currently on my 100 series
The rubber is about a medium compound like say 280 treadwear and very deep.. like 25ish mm.
The guy told me it's what the pig shooters use, as they are cheap and very very tough.
It is at a local truck tyre company
I can't find much about them on the net..
thinking getting some and being a guinea pig
Whats ya think?

Those LL62's look the same as the MRF Super Traction bias 12 plies I run on my 105 series. They're an awesome tyre and I couldn't be happier with them.
They're a little rough on the road but awesome off-road. Haven't stakes or destroyed one yet. I've done plenty of off-track work with them, been across the simpson twice, up the gulf, through the Strezlecki etc......
Rubbed a hole in one tube which made the tyre go flat due to running too low tyre pressures, and a nail through another. Other than that, they're magic.
I think these kind of tyres are underrated when it comes to serious off-road work. It's interesting to see what people run around town ( same as in all the magazine advertisements etc) compared to what's actually run in the bush.
I'll be sticking with my ugly split rims and bias tyres.
Just my opinion.
Back to your tyres........ I think you could do worse than to run some of those tyres. Depending what work you plan to do with them, you'll be impressed.
Let us know how you go with them.
Cheers.
