Super Swamper TSL / Bogger - TSL = Three Stage Lug
This is the mother of all street legal mud tires. If you're looking for a good mud tire, this is the one everyone talks about. Its huge lugs resemble the paddles of a riverboat and perform in much the same way propelling the vehicle forward through the mud. The three stage lugs and deep voids in the aggressive tread design extends down onto the sidewalls to add just that much more bite in the deeper mud. With 6, 8 or 10 plys in the ply rating (model dependant) this tire has a strong, puncture resistant, tear resistant sidewall, however tends be on the stiff side until well broken in. The Bogger is the preferred tire for many rock crawlers who say the Bogger performs very well on the rock. Its seriously aggressive tread also allows it to perform well in snow and sand as well as the changing conditions of the wooded trails. One drawback to its tread design is the fact that it may not grip as well when lateral traction is needed as when the vehicle may be traveling sideways along a hill rather than up or down it. In this case the tread may act more as skis allowing the vehicle to slip sideways and the lack of sipes doesn't help either. Interco Tire Corporation attempts to give this tire some street friendly attitude with minor success by breaking up the lug pattern to avoid a harmonic vibration but regardless the ride is quite rough, uneven and loud on paved road. Needless to say this tire is not one you want to commute to work every day with as it produces plenty of street noise and does not handle very well on pavement. However is is street legal, D.O.T. approved and actually does wear quite well, probably due to its harder compound. For the weekend warrior, this is a great second set of tires for the weekend offroad event to be replaced by a set of all terrains for the Monday morning commute. Some offroaders prefer to mount a set of Boggers on the rear with a set of Super Swamper TSL SSRs on the front for a great combo. Available sizes range from the 30.9" up to the 44.1" in tread widths from 9.8" to 15.4" in various combinations. Available rim sizes in 15", 16" and a 17x10 model.

I run a set of 35x14.50/16's on an 80 Suburban that's kinda built. I bought 'em for mud & haven't been disappointed in the year I've had them on, killer in the snow too, I live in the Yukon & can break trail up the powerlines all year! have been stuck a couple times but was not the tires fault at all. 39x18's for the next set

The only tire better in the mud is the bias Gateway Buckshot Mudder. I can do donuts around guys running TSL when I have the Buckshots.

I had these on a Toyota for 2 years and there isn't ANYTHING close to out pulling these in MS. mud... PERIOD.
Everyone knows these are the DOG'S BALLS for mud, just except it or you're an IDIOT.
On pavement, these SOB's HUM harder than a $5.00 hooker on Main St and LOUDER. They'll ruin a daily driver by rattling it to death.
They are hard to keep balanced and don't last long on pavement. My set had about 15k on them and MIGHT have made it to 30k on a light Yota if I'd kept them on. I bought them for the WOW factor since know had them in 94' in my area.
I might buy them again since my commute is a total of 6 miles / day! These are just the nastiest tires by looks ever....
