Default New Maxxis tires

Has anyone tried the new Maxxis M917/M918 BIGHORN Radial tire. If so how are they for turning and ride. the only thing is they come the same size as stock 25 inch.

M917/M918 BIGHORN
Radial

Radial construction offers
a significantly smoother
road over rough trails.
Extra lugs on the
shoulder protect the
sidewall and rim.

Raised white lettering on
one side.
Suitable for desert, dirt
and rock.

I'm really interested in the new radial Big Horn tires as well. They look good to me; I will probably be putting these on my Grizz.

I have the Maxxis big horns on my 2003 AC 25" but they look like 26" because of the 1" lugs and I think they ar great. The mud clears out very quickly no one wants to follow me to close going through mud. Haven't had any problems turning or climing up rocks I think there great at least 100% betteer than stock.

do a search for bighorns in the kawasaki forum. They were talking about that a lot a few months ago. Not much good either though. Lots of out of the round problems and stuff.

I had them on now for about 2 or 3 hundred miles now I think they are great. For the tread design with deep treads they ride smoth and are very agresive in the mud and rocks. I also think the handel as good if not better than the stock tires. So far I have no complaints.
