Default Which tires should I get.

I've been looking at different tires on the net and can't decide which tires would be good to put on my Forman es with trax-lock.I've thought about spider-trac's or mud-lights.I don't do alot of ridding in deep mud.I do alot of hill climbing and trail riding.Can anyone give me some help?

I researched and researched and I was steered in the direction of the BearClaws, I was really impressed, they are the best tires I have ever used period. I went alittle oversized on front and back and they are fantastic.

The combo on my Rincon (Devils and Gators) works really well. I had Claws on the rear, but wasn't too impressed...

Titan 589s, Goodyear Mud Runners, or the new mud-lite from ITP would be what I would choose. The Mud-lite will not rob as much power because they are light. ITP does make very good tires.

I had Bearclaws and would not buy another set. They were made in Taiwan and were not true to size.

got a few ridden buds that are using the regular SUPER SWAMPER ---12x12's all the way around--fairly light tire and it's smooth for trail riding--don't get that handlebar shake at low speeds---kills those front wheel brgs and tie-rods ends----check their website---funwheelerpark.com---probably see every type tire and terrain you'll ever want-----most people i set up for normal ridden on a 450 is the 9.50's on the front and the 12's on the rear---wanta get a little more height ---blow them up to bout 25 psi---they will stretch to about 29" tall----ya may blow one or two out a year but the weight difference is worth it -- ain't stealin horse power -- these guys/girls get into some serious MUDDIN too---HAVE FUN
