Has anyone had these tires ?

How would they compare to the stock dunlops that come with the Vinson 500 ?

I am looking for a good trail tire for my Ricon that will last a little longer then the stockers.

Thanks

Mark

Thanks ,

How do you find them compared to stock tires ?

I have a new set of Dunlop 405 's but I could get a good trade for them if I get the jackal's .

How are they on hard pack and grassy trails ? I have concerns that will not hook up compared to the stocker's .

I am not concerned about deep riding just how they are on the trails.

Do you think they would last longer then the stocker's ? Because the 650 in 2 wd just kills the stocker's , that is the reason I am considering the Jackal' s in hope that they will last longer .

Thank you very MUCH !

I like them real well for hardpak and grassy trails.They have a good side lug that is great for getting out of ruts.I have 4 yrs of hard ridding on mine and they are just now starting to get wore down to where they dont bite good but still walked around a 650 prarrie that was stuck to winch him out.Hope this helps you out.
