Default Opinions wanted: My Predator needs new tires

I just bought a 2003 predator and love the bike except for it has the worst rear tires I have ever used! I can get stuck in anything for crying out loud! I rode with my cousin who rides a blaster and got stuck in every small mud hole O saw he went through all of them...It drove me nuts!
Now the question is this, I ride trails 95% of the time with alot of mud holes. this thing will never see a sand dune or race track, what do you guys recommend? I have been looking at buying a set of mud tires what do you think,

The Maxxis® Razr PR tires that come on the 05s are pretty damn good. Not sure about cost or availability since they came on my machine. But, I get right through the mud holes on our trails very well. Plus, we have been climbing some pretty stiff hills covered in mud and I can make it up by keeping the spinning. The hook up very well.

i think my dealer said 95 for the TLD radial tires... They hook up awesome on hard track. I'm running mudlites right now, i thought it would be funny, but I'll stand up for them now, I've yet to find a downfall to running these tires trail. I put a 13t on the front to run 22's. They've been doing well on the sandbar we run, and worked well with the hydroplaning on memorial day weekend. No joke, if you want to mudhole your pred, I'd recommend the mudlites.

I have Kenda Claws on the rear, and IMO they are the best all around tire. I don't have a problem going through mud at all. And they are 6 ply. They also clean thier self very well. And they are less then $50.00 bucks a tire.

Opinions wanted: My Predator needs new tires----- for some of us, if it wasn't for the predator, we wouldn't be polaris lovers.... so we'll throw on some mud tires and have us some fun
