Anyone used Super Swampers.
Was having a chat to a mate on the weekend about the old Super Swampers. We Havent seen them in ages and was wondering if anyone still uses them? They were the ultimate muddies back then but as most of us stopped using them due to hard Aussie tracks and the lugs ripping off just wondering if anyone here is using them, pics below (have a look at the insane lugs off the side).

Haven't seen them in many years Locks.
They did have their craze in the 90's around my area but as you mentioned the side lugs tore about on rocks and road use was just not worth it for the cost of the tyres.
Great in the mud though!

Bit late, but some people still use them
Not sure on how they would rip lugs off, i've personaly seen these in 44" with a twin turbo 3.5l V8 smoke them up, and still have all there lugs
But they are very old tech now, any of the modern stickys are a world apart.

seen them running in thick deep mud like about 3 or 4 foot of mud not muddy water but the thick sticky mud. they just ate it up no worries. i feel that they are just a very specialised tyre and if u had your very own swamp to play in they would be great otherwise no go.

I have a mate that has run them and they are an orsome allrounder. They are old tec but they will still give the new tec a run for there money. They eat the simexes up on rock although they are probably just behind them in the mud. But if you are to torking about the super swamper boggers it's the complete opposite. I had the boggers and they where probably the best tyre I have seen in the mud but where dangerous on a slippers between track because they had no sideways control. And also bad on rock. But I would buy the normal swampers over the simex any day of the week. On rock they make it look like the simex doesn't work at all.
