Default Super Swampers or Mudlites??

Getting a set of tires this week for my Rancher. I see lots of people using Mudlites and I'm wondering how they compare.
DO the mudlites back up in mud as good as the swampers? Which climbs out of ruts better? Which is better on hills, muddy and dry?
THanks for any opinions.

Well 26 weigh more but you will get more ground clearance wiht them and 25 are cheaper so that is really up to you if it was me i would get the 26 your rancher will turn them just fine.

Thanks zacmac. I bought a set of 25's the day before you replied though. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] They seem to work really well though. 26in tires would be a lot to pull in 2nd gear, the 25's are a load as it is. If I need more clearance I'll put a set of aftermarket shocks on.
Why do they even sell atv's with tires? With the superswampers it's like having a totally different bike. What I like about the swampers is how I can ease off into a hole and if it's too deep I can back out with no probs- even on steep banks, washouts, etc.
