The MTZs are the best radial available right now, these tyres are bias and are illegal for road use. I am looking into buying a another 4x4 that won't be street legal and I want some very aggressive tyres.

A) Swampers aren't illegal because they're bias, the radials are just as illegal - It's because they don't have a load/speed rating.
B) LTB's are only available up to 34" so there too small for an off road car (IMHO they're even borderline for a serious suzuki)
C)They're not as aggressive as a "normal" swamper but will work better in the dry as they're softer and flex better as they have siped tread.
D)The photo you have posted is of the 47" LTB which super aggressive the smaller ones are more roadable and have less void.

Yeah I get why this looks odd but lets assume Sim79 isn't after a 47" tyre. Odds are though a 34 might be a touch small. If he looks at the 47" and thinks the 34 looks like it though, he's mistaken as it is a fair bit less aggressive.
That was my point.
We've had three cars in the Suzuki club here in Vic with the 34 10.5 15's on them and they're pretty good as an all rounder though - I just don't think I'd run them on a heavy car (and I think the Interco website doesn't recommend the LTB's for heavy cars)

what Steve is trying to say is they are available up to 34" and also in a 47" size, nothing between though

These are my 34x10.5/15 LTBs on my zook. No where near as agressive as the 47" version.
They are a very soft compound but they love the rocks and hard packed dirt roads and I rate them just under the silverstone MT-117 extreme/simex pattern in the thick gumbo mud.
Great on a zook but anything heavier than a single cab hilux and I think they'd struggle.

Like the look of the 35 12.5 16. Might be the next set of tyres. Almost as much tread depth as Q78

I found this on Pirate4x4, Interco f--ked the width up!!
[QUOTE=BCzuk;9193537]Ya I bought them direct from Interco a few months ago. I was trying to get the 34 in a 17 but none available anywhere so i called interco and found out about the 35. They measure a true 35" and on a 8" rim they are about 10 3/4 wide which is what I was hoping. Tires says 35x12x17
I also like that they have the Irok centre tread. Work really well on the snow filled steets[/QUOTE]
Below are the 35x12.5 17s!!! Look very narrow

look at most spec sheets on tread width and overall width for bias tires.

just a quick question..
are any of these agressive swampers speed or load rated at all? I have been considering some 34x9.50r16's to replace my AT's when the finally have had it but the fact that they could be illegal (apart from size) is a concern.
I'm looking at the
narrow Super swampers to go on my 16" skinny rims..

Looking at this size: 34x9.50-16.5LT
