I am looking for some 6 ply tires to put on my all time 4x4 AC to replace the stock 2 ply 489's. I use the quad off road in mud but the majority of the time I am on hard/semi hard pack. One of the big uses for my Quad is car shows and pit use. In other words, pavement. I want a 6 ply based on info seen here to help ease stearing and lessen side wall roll on these hard surfaces. I had all but decided on mudlights but then shifted to Titan 489 XT due to excelent reports in terms of use in mud and smooth ride on hard pack.

I then came accross a local guy selling Dirt Devils (Xt's and AT's) at a good price. They are 6 ply as well from what I can determine. Both treads looks similar to a 489 or a Mudlight. Any one out there who has them with an opinion on ride anw wear? I like the XT but I bet the less agressive AT would better suite my desire for a smooth ride.

i'm going to get dirt devils 25 on my kodiak 25-8-12 back 25-10-12 i found a great price rockymountian has them $40 1 in the back and 35 for 1 in the front comes out to like $150.00 which i think is a great price

 

I like the Dirt Devils alright but I would look into the Hoover line first, probably a stand-up model.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Thanks guys,

Hoover, not seen them. A google search did not give me a lot.


Anyone out there running them now? The GBC's that is.

my friends has them on his bear tracker there sweet everywhere there alright in mud hes made it threw all on them but a couple which he bottomed out

 

Got dirt devils on 2 bikes. What I like is they hook great in soft stuff but they also have very little vibration on hard packed stuff.

I like the 26" ,not realy too tall to kill the bottom end but have the deep lugs for soft stuff.

 

Great!! Just the info I was looking for.

Keep it coming, any others?

ive got a set of 22"s on my Banshee. they throw mud like no tomorrow. i was walkin through stuff that stuck stock 400EXs with stock tires. one guy with a 400ex had Holeshots though and he made it. the Devils handled well on hardpack and were easy to slide with through corners. they ARE squirrely on grass. i noticed the *** end wanting to swing out on numerous occasions. if your not racing in grass then id say they would fit the bill for ya.
im actually looking to sell mine as i need something more along the lines of the Holeshots as most of the running around here is har packed. then i ll get some paddles for when im out on the Island for the summer.

hope this helped
