Default Mud/sand tyres.

Where I live and mainly run my truck its mostly sand based earth and logs (often wet as i live in the uk lol) not really many if any rocks,so whats a good tyre for mainly trail running on sandy/muddy ground and crawling on logs rather than rocks? Currently got the stock maxxis trepadors and their not brilliant in sand or mud really.i like the super swampers as they look like insa turbos, a common 1:1 tyre over here.

One of the off road magazine s did a test in sand on what kind of tire to run in sand. They tested all terrains and aggressive mud tires, and found with lots of horsepower the most aggressive tire was the best (Swamper Bogger). Here in western Montana I also have a lot of fallen logs to cross and have found tire compound is not as important as tread design. Large blocky treads with large voids seem to work best as the tread block is stiff enough to catch an edge of the bark and pull the truck up.
I don't think you would go wrong with either Tsl super swampers or swamper Boggers.
