I run the 34x10.5 bias ply. I find they go a lot better on the rocks and roots with some additional cutting. Without it the tend to just spin on the center lugs unless you can find some side traction for those lugs.

. Get um! I found mine at a little more than half tread for $400.

What kind of pressure do you run??

Right now I have 33x10.5 bias ply swampers, about 1/2 tread and they are OK. The LTB are scary aggressive, they almost look like they could climb a rock with out a vehicle attached.:D

and the rims, rated for 3000 lbs load and look that cool without being "Mall crawler bling".
 
I usually run between 8 and 12 depending on what I'm doing. I have them on original stock chrome wagons that I think a 8" wide. They stay on well at 8, I've knock one off the bead twice but it was from hitting a stump real hard. I've never had one just peel off and imagine I might be able to go 6.

I run them at about 22 on the road but I also have a set of 33x12.5s on aluminum rims they I use for my street and moderate trail tires.

The LTBs are very aggressive and super tough carcass. They wobble you around real good for the first couple of miles when cold but once they warm up they actually run real well on the road.

I like the 10.5s because my rig is light 3500 with me in it, and I don't need all that contact patch. And, I'm only running about 4" of total lift and they stuff inside the fenders nicely.

Those wheels your looking at are sweet.
