i have a 2000 recon with the stock tires. and they suck! they are odd sized and hard to find good tires for. the sizes are Front=22x7-11
Back=22x10-9. since there are no lift kits availible... i want the biggest tire i can use on a recon... 24 in think. i might even have to buy new wheels to accomodate some good tires. can anyone help me what to choose and maybe were to find them? I ride my recon in soft dirt and mountain trails and of course MUD!!!!

I believe that Mud Machines just might be the tire you are looking for.

Here is their direct link, http://www.mudtires.com/mt_cat1j.html#mmat

Just remember, the bigger the tires, the more power is consumed to turn them. The Recon is not powerhouse to start with, 24 or 25 inch tires will make it slower.....
