Re: Super Swamper tires
I have the BFG MTs and think they're quieter than the A/Ts I had before. A
little less grip on wet pavement, but far more grip on the rocks and in the
mud. Great tires -- when it's time for new ones, I'll be buying more of the
same.

Re: Super Swamper tires
I was dreading wet pavement performance when I put on BFG Muds, but I
have been since surprised at how well they hold on in the rain. Not one
scary moment with hydroplaning or broken traction.

Re: Super Swamper tires
You can also have a tire shop add siping to them for around $10 per tire
which dramatically improves a tire's wet and icy road traction. I did
and it was a very good mod that I was always glad I had it done.
