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 just put 25x12.5x10 Bear Claws on my 2001 Honda Rancher 350ES.Good grip but at times it seems the ole rancher struggels to turn them in deep mudd in 2nd gear.Only had them about 3 days now.So far so good...

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.
