I really want to try the new 14" radials!

Mudlite XTR on 14" wheels sure sounds awesome

the only problem I seen with mud lites are they wear fast and they have weak side walls. some of the riders that I ride with have to plug their side walls. creaks and rocks are hard on them.

hmm

Well I can't buy them yet, my wife would B-slap me lol


perhaps by the time I get my allowence saved up to 800 bucks or so something else will come out and be better.


I would like to see some 27" 589 MS but LSW (Low Side Walls) but with like 16" wheels....would make for some lightweight tough wheels.

I would look into the big horn tires, they are suppost to wear awsome and be tough as nails.

Im going to shoot for the gators, I heard they are long lasting, and durable, and great all around traction tires.

I went with the Bighorns and would highly recommend them. I gashed the side wall of the weenie stock tires and got to ride 20 miles on three wheels. The big horns have held up real well and get outstanding traction. These are the best tires I have ever had.

Those tires do look pretty nice with those rims, what size and total cost was that set up?
