Trying to decide between ITP589 or Mudlites on 27s. Anyone had any experience with them both? Also, I noticed that both Titan and ITP make a tire called 589. They look the same. Are they?

 

i have a setof the itp589m/s tires and i like them alot lots of traction they will get you out of some pretty nasty stuff but can get you stuck like any tire . i've heard nothin but good things about the mudlites so i dont think you could go wrong either way

my buddys honda has the itp 589s and they work great on his bike and my other buddys kawi has the mudlites and he thinks there great olso. ijust did a ride this week with both guys and we went through some nasty stuff and all 4 quads made it eaven my best buds rubicon with stock tires made it check out my page and see some pics of the ride.also like greasmky said you cant go wrong with either one. but my gators kicked butt.

 

best move i have ever made going to the mudlites!!

 

go with the mudlites. i've seen catcrazy's in action. made me think hard about my outlaws. the 589's are much heavier than their worth. my next set will likely be the mudlites.

 

WHats up man I didnt know you joined the forum!!!

COOL now we can keep in touch here also!!!

When you comming back down to the WOLF RIVER??

 

I'll be back in a month or so. waiting on my next mods before I dive back into those holes.

 

HEHE

I told you they were bad!!!

 

Thanks for the info Guys. I bought a set of mudlites yesterday. Went with the 26 inch. Not alot of mudding here and didnt want to loose the lowend for rock crawling and pulling. 25 woul dhave been okay in fact but you need 26 to get the agressive tread. I have been reading this forum for ahile now and I notice that most of the real serious guys have the manual tranny. Is that by choice or just a coincidence that you guys all bought manuals. I got on because of pulling and reliability. I had a sportsman 500 (read: smoking belt, slipping belt, breaking belt, changing belt) and didnt want to go through all that again. Auto is nice for fooling around on trials but not great for serious work (I found anyways)

Is that the same with you all?

I'll post some pics tonight to give you an idea what quading is like up here and why I wanted a manual tranny.

 

Id say the mudders all go with manual to eliminate water entering the housing. I can tell you the manual has more power and the 1st gear engine braking is superior.
