I haven't used them but being new to the sport I was observing what the other riders in our ATV club was using & the Shur Trac was the most prevalent after market tire. The club consists of mainly trail riders with an occassional mud hole.

yes i have used them and they are a fine tire, just not as much tread depth as other mud tires, do a search under harold to see my thoughts on these tires.

good tires had them all round on my honda 300 4x4
good wearing tire on hard surfaces...
i ran the standard size.....which were actually wider than the OEM Otshus (spelling)
....good in the mud cleared well good sideways stablity (shoulder *****) and a could still break the bike sideways :-)
they run well at low psi.....i ran about 3 psi in most trail riding situations....5 psi on the farm(hard suface) access tracks etc...only problem was the sledging in turns with the tires on the front not biting as hard because they are a wide flat tire, with tread that has a more flat tread angle....compared to your 2x4 front tires which have a tread bar which is of sharper angle or face in the direction of the tire movement....but hey....that never really slowed me down!!
