For those of you who have aftermarket tires.

1) Tell us what you have.
2) Why did you choose that model of tire
3) What type of riding do you do 80% of the time.
4) If you were to buy tires today, would you get the same as you have or something different.
5) Comments - good or bad.

 

little nosy arent ya buck lol, you want short and sweet answers or a book lol
1.BKT Wings
2.They looked like a good tire in the Dennis Kirk book, I dont like the aggressiveness of the ITP tires because they seem to tear out more CV shafts because of the lugs
3.I do alot of trails, so thats with alot of mud and downed trees
4.You havent given me time to try them in mud yet lol
5.I had no complaints with them when I was plowing snow, you can get a pretty good idea how there going to work when pushing wet heavy snow, I have a feeling Im going to be very happy with them, why do you ask? are looking for my tires to go along with the brakes LMAO

 

1) GoodYear Raw Hide MT/R
2) Came with the ATV
3) Trail and Mud
4) I have only used these ones so far. I really like them. The have nice size lugs and and get you out of just about anything. I have used them in the snow as well. Have not gotten stuck yet( unless from being stupid).
5) Love the tire. would buy them again no question asked.

 

#1---Kenda BearClaws
#2---Run them in the past and liked them
#3---Mixture of everything from pavement to mud to snow to rocks to loose dirt to hardpack.
#4---Same thing
#5---Best all purpose tire on the market IMO

 

25" mudlites
bought them because they were highly recomended
most of my riding is trail, rock,moderate mud
bought them off ebay dont remember dealer
they suck i hate them. they wear to fast they cant climb rock worth the crap the only thing they do well is go through mud yes the name is mud lite but its sold as a great all around tire and its not.

 

1) Innova MudGear on the front / TBC Mudcats on the rear
2) I got them because it was a process of elimination over a 3 year span.
3) I ride mostly trails with a little of everything, and I go exploring not knowing what to expect for turf.
4) I would buy exactly what I have again. The fronts came down to 'Duro-Buffalo' or 'Innova MudGear' (toss a coin), I would try the Buffalo's, the tie breaker for the front was the side lugs, where MudGear won out.
5) Both front and rear seem to work well with everything. The side lugs on the MudGears really grab stuff (stumps, rocks, ice, roots, ruts - you name it and it will grab it with it's claw like side lugs), so I am very pleased with them. The MudCats on the rear have alot of dig, you have to be carefull on wet grandular snow or packed snowmobile trails (dig fishing holes quickly), but they do grab rock, dirt, snow, mud and other truf very well. Both the front and rear roll very quietly and smoothly, more so than the OEM Dunlops. I would highly recommend them.

Well that is my story and I am sticking too it.

07 650 artic cat h1 4X4

 

1 27 inch itp 589's
2 cause they are the hardest toughest tire on the market and sidewalls dont flex.
3 do alot of mud gravel roads trails rocks well it all
4 either the same or i would go with more aggressive but probably the same.
5 i love them i got over 2000 miles on them and they show no wear. it made the cat handle 100 times better. oh and i haven't broken anything on the atv and these tires been on it the whole time.

 

I wanted the ITPs but my friend has a grizzly, and there ruining his cv's, but have you seen the axles on a grizzly compared to a cats, big difference,its like the cats are twice the size almost

 

1) Mudlite XL 25 and 26 inch.

2) They perform the best for what I ride through, sandy mud, clay, and peat bog.

3) I ride a sandy silty beach with patches of gravel, peat bog trails.

4) Just bought more Mudlites, but went with the newer XL model. The AT and older XLT style did wear prety fast if you rode on pack gravel or roads a lot.

5) very good tire but if you go to a 26inch or 27inch tire in Mudlite you need to entend the fender flares on the AC as it causes what I have come to describe as the "manure spreaker" effect. Large chunks of stuff flying all over. Plus, its all fun and games until your daughter gets smashed in the face from stuff flying off the tires.
