Default Honda 350 with Bear Claw 25x10 & 25x8?

2002 Honda 350 with Bear Claw 25x10 & 25x8? I am thinking about the Bear Claws and Mud Lites in the same size and they would cost me the same. I do get a lot of highway travel and heard that Mud Lites don't last as long. What do you all think I sould get for size and brand? I don't mind it taking a fair bit of power away, but my dad will cry.

Also I would like a 1" lift, but what are you thoughts?

I know. Just with stock tires the 350 tends to bog down in the mud. It isn't to bad, but far from great.

I've got a 2001 Rancher with 25X8 front and 25X10 back Mudlites and I wouldn't say it struggles in 2nd gear in deep mud, it just plain doesn't spin em! that is unless you have the revs really high before hitting it. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I've got about 2000kms on the tires now and they still look new, but I never have to ride pavement either.

If I had to do it over, next time I'd go 10 in the front and 12 in the back for better rim protection.
