Just to let you know if you drive your jeep on the street alot those tires wont last long as they are bias ply and super soft.  I only got 10k out of my old 31 x 11.5 x R15 super swampers.  If you do very little street driving they are a great choice.

If you drive on the street, I have also heard those tires are pretty noisy...  Not a problem if you know it in advanced and dont mind, but just something to keep in mind.  By the way, I have read this; I have never owned swampers, so I have no personal experience with them...

The LTB's are a noisy tire, I have them on my YJ, with a hole in the exhaust in the down pipe, and no top I can still here my tires at 55mph going down the road.

Noisy and like to go square if you live in a colder climate.  Nothing like waiting for a bias tire to decide to get round first thing every morning.

They also weight more and you will feel the power loss...
