The wear has been my only complaint, if you spend any time on the blacktop you probably won't like them.

I don't run black top unless it's getting from trail to trail. To me it's a trade off, a soft compound wears quicker but hooks up better.

I have two riding areas with 7 or so miles on blacktop from the house, and I sometimes run the Ranger into town to fill it up or to the car wash, etc. The Swamplites worked GREAT, we've had three or four sets of them (on ATV's though), and averaged getting around 800-900 miles out of them. It sounds like they might last longer for you though.

I have about 600 miles on my Bighorns (should be the same as yours) right now and they look to be at about 75-80% if that gives you something to compare to.

Personally If it were me and I was set on the Swamp Lites, I'd get the Reptiles.....basically a radial version of the Swamps, wear better, ride better, and go just as good

They are not exactly the same thing. However, I have to agree with you. I would take the Reptiles over the Swamp Lite if you want longevity.

I have 27x12x12s on all four corners. Could not be happier with their performance. Went rock crawling today, aired them down to 3.5psi and man they grip awesome. Personally I am not concerned with wear but so far they are wearing very good.

Correct, a radial will not flex quite like a bias ply.

Wearing them out is proably not an issue. Most likely will cut the side walls before wearing the tread out?? Just saying from my experience.

We wheel in some tough jagged rocks at Uwharrie and have yet to cut one even running low pressure. They are tough!

My riding buddy has the radial reptiles and the guy at the evarts ky shop says the reptiles are the best and sell alit of them. Im getting when my bighorns wear out. 800 miles and still about 80% left. Tires may outlive the rzr
