Title: Swampers (Front) Boggers (Rear)
Post by: DankstaVegas on October 20, 2006, 01:24:06 PM

In almost every issue of the magazines I read (JP, Four Wheeler and others) I keep coming upon vehicles equipped with Boggers in the rear & Swampers in the front. Haven't really noticed any other types of tires/tread being used, just the above combination.  

Is there a reason why people run 2 different types of tires/tread on their rigs?  :?:

just a guess swampers are better for steering while boggers dig better?

Boggers are good DIGGERS, and the swampers are better for steering and probably sidehills
