I ran 35 inch TSL/SX glass belts on my old YJ. They were awesome off road. If I had a total off road Jeep again, I would run these. For some on road use I would not. I'm going back to BFG's with their new MT design, (BFG no longer makes an MT in the old design larger than 33's). Here is a list of likes and dislikes with the TSL's. Note: these are a no compromise tire.
- Excellent air down capability. I could comfortable go to 4 psi with no bead locks. My BFG MT's I would not go below 12 psi
- Excellent traction on rocks or mud
- Excellent side wall protection from sharp objects
- Sounds like a Cessna on the road
- Hard to balance. I had to go to internal tire sand bags like the trucker use
- Flat spot. Most likely a function of the glass belt. After sitting overnight, they would fell like "square" tires for the first hundred yards or so. “Flintstone” tires
