I need some help guys. I am looking to buy some new tires for my 99 mag. I want some reliable, not extremely spendy, no lift kit needed, 25" or 26" mudding tires. I am leaning towards the new goodyear mudrunners. ( there is a good article about them in the "product reviews" at this site.)I would like some prices and some experiences. If I were to get 25" or 26" blackwater tri and bi claws where would I find them and would I have to get new wheels? I don't want to replace the wheels just the tires.Get me some prices!!!! Thanks!

Mag,
I've got 27" Blackwater XT's on my 99 Magnum 500 with no lift kit. You can go to 27" without having to buy a lift.
BTW.. I wouldn't pay good money for the front end lift kit on a Polaris machine... all you have to do is cut two pieces of pipe the height you want, and two more the diameter of the shock cartridge the same height.
The back needs no lift with any size tires..

 

Mag500 u will probably get the best prices from National tire and Wheel company(they have an ad in Dirt Wheels mag) but i dont know how much they charge for shipping

 

If you want some good prices on Mud Machines in 25" and 26" sizes then go to Rocky Mountain. They have some of the best prices I have seen. Another tires that they see is the Mud Shark. They aren't as good as the the Claws but they ride better and the are about 20 bucks cheaper, per tire.

 

Mag500,I have the 26'' GoodYear MudRunners on my 99 500cc Sportsman.I can tell you nothing but good things about these tires.Absolutly awesume in the worst mud or snow.They also deleiver a good ride in hardpack.Good Luck-----BILL
