Take a look at the Realtor, I got them on my quad. They got some big butt treads on them suckers! I use mine for mud too and its a huge lug. Thats all I can say!

PS- The 400EX got Razrs which work awesome. Its a tough off-road version of the Holesho or Shredder.( I wote this late at night)

I know a guy who has 22" Mud machines on his Warrior, and they work really good. Usually when he gets stuck it is because he is hung up or he has too much muck in front of him to push. I recently got the 22" Holeshot XCT's and I am very happy with them. I wanted more ground clearance on my 400EX, but I also wanted a versatile tire.

I have the 22" Realtors on my Warrior and I love 'em. They really dig. If you turn them around they work great as sand paddles, too. The realtors seem to be made of a pretty hard compound; mine are a year old and show very little wear, except where I've locked 'em down on pavement. I've got a pic if you want to see how they look. Just let me know and I'll email it to ya.

Sure, send it to me!
I would love to see them on a warrior,
i seen a couple of 300ex's at the Morango
Swamp Run and they did preaty good, not to mention looked pretty good. I was running
Super Swampers on my trailblazer and they did
good but didnt roost high (may have just been the TBlazer?) and dont look quite as
good as the others.
Thanks for everyones help, keep em commin!

I have 1997 Warrior, and it has 20" Titan Trail Claw 2's. They are an excellent tire. My only question to you is did you change your front sprocket from the standard 13 tooth, to regain your top end. Any suggestions ?

Warrior,
We recently replaced the tires on our Scrambler 500.. and put Kenda Bear Claws on the rear (22x12.5x10) I can't say enough good thigs about these tires, riding on trails, they ride smooth and are very predictable when you want to hang out the tail end in a curve.. The old Titans that were on the rear would ride good, but when you rolled on the power, they would spin helplessly.. The Bear Claws will spin for a second or two, then BITE hard and try to pull your arms out of socket.. In the mud.. they work equally as well, clean out well, and work almost as good in reverse as they do in forward. Which is more important that one would think...!!

Good Luck!!

I've had realtors on a Warrior before and they worked great. They self clean very well, You'll throw mud all over whoever's behind you. Great tire for a sport quad that wants to go muddin'.

Bear Claws are great. I have a frined with a 250 cc 2x4 and they are a great lighter weight tire. They roost really high too. He used to sling mud all in my face untill I got my Vampires.
