I had some on my Tacoma and they were great as an all terrain, but I am not sure how long they would run on something that weighs 7000lbs

from my experience ALL the super swamper radials dont last worth a crap on fullsize trucks..

the rubber is just to soft and wears very quickly..

perfect tires for mini-trucks thou, they dont weigh enuf to ever wear a set out.

In general, Super Swampers are designed for serious off road use or posing. Not durability. Every one I've experienced used pretty soft to extremely soft rubber compounds for traction.

I got 17k out of a set of 37" SSR's on my 2000. They're way too soft, great for off road but sloppy on the pavement.

Check out the Toyo M/T's, you'll get good mileage with those (mine had about 25-30k on them when I sold the truck, still had about another 5-10k left).
