My uncle wants to get some mud tires for his recon, we went to a store and saw blackwaters, mud sharks, and dirt-devils. The dir-devils had the best tread on them, and only cost $50 for a tire compared to 80 for blackwaters and mudsharks. DOes anybody have them, or know if they are good.
Im wanting some for my 300ex too, what are the biggest size I can get on stock rims?

Just wondering why you said the Dirt-Devils had the best tread. I havn't had a chance to see any of them in the Recon size in real life. It's hard to tell by the pictures. Was the tread deeper or have more side bite or what? I wasn't really considering the Dirt-Devils as a choice (ITP Blackwaters or Spider Trac, maybe Sur-trac or the SuperSwampers and the Realtors were /are my picks so far). BTW the price seems high for the Blackwaters, I've seen them up to 20 Bucks cheeper in package deals.

The tread was bigger and they had a size for a recon, and for a 300ex. The blackwaters was 79 I think, and the mudsharks was 75, compared to 50 for the dirtdevils. They look good, I think my uncle is going to get them and I'll tell you how well they work, and IM going to get them to for my 300ex since Im done racing for this year and its time for a little trail and mud riding.
