my mudlites do really good in the snow but probally woundnt be the best choice if you only do snow riding. You could also just buy tire chains

razr's no good if your gunna be facing hills, and mudlites arent bad, but id go with something like spider-trak...22" should do...

mudlites are the replacement forspidertrac's. I would have gotton the spider tracks but they dont make them anymore and leftovers are hard to find. And do you mean that reazors are no good for any hill climbing or just snowy hill climbing becuase i was considering getting razors and i climb alot of sandy, rocky and hills with ruts and go thru mud alot but ride on a track alot also.

Try ITP Holeshot XCR or XCT. They aren't really good in one thing and really bad in another. I would say they are the all around best tire traction wise in any condition. Last a long time also.

i had no problems going up the banks to get to my truck. i would only have troubles in 2 situations. 1) when a hill was pure ice. 2) when there was 1 ft of powder on a steep hill. other than that i had no problems.

also if your only going to use them in the winter get some studs. well worth the investment.

I had a 2002 Warrior that I put 25" Dirt Devils on. The extra groung clearance and beefy tread helped a lot in the snow and mud/RUTS! but I had to change the sprockets to get my low end power back. I also lost a little sportiness but I hardly ever got stuck. Now I have the 04 Raptor and I'm either considering the Maxxis 4-Snows or I also think it seems like some good dune tires would do well in the snow. I probably wont go 3" bigger though again. By the way, I found this forum because I also kinda had the same question- what are the best atv snow tires? Hope you get more feedback so I can look at what others have to say as well.
