I do not know the exact weight, but they are hevier than mudlites, but lighter than the heavy mud tires, i guess you could say they are the lightest tire with big tread right now

they should be able to pull em, if you dont go over the stock size, which im guessing are 25's. The 250 should be able to light em up, if you are looking for the bigger tread and you are worried about it not being able to pull it go down a size or get the mudlites(less tread depth but still very good tires), but you should be able to pull the gators in mud, in 2nd if not you still got 1st [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

tires are awesome but do they wear good my uncle has outlaws on a foreman and he said that they will wear out fast if i get on the road, is this true. I cruised throught the swamp with the gators but the other tires would of had to put it in 2nd and floor it.

I've got some Gators with about 400 miles on them. Barely any signs of wear. I don't think mud any tire will last long ridden on the road though.

I had an 86 250 when I was about your age. It had loads of torque. I would think that it could have turned 26" mud tires easily. It will probably spin those 25's pretty good huh?

it spins them pretty good, was thinking about getting a K&N air filter do you think this would give it more power.
