Default Tire Size

I have a 94 polaris Trail Boss 2 stroke. I have a couple questions I dont know what is better I am interested in buying the Titan 589 M/T or the ITP 589 M/S Any suggestions on witch one is better?? I was also wondering i have 25x12x10 in the rear could I FIT 26x12x12 Back there? Also would it be bad to have 26's in the back and 25's in the front? Any disadvantage besides a little tilt to the front? Are the tires going to be to heavy for my 400L?? Any disadvantage? Any sugestions would help me a lot thank you!

If u are more a trail rider than mud runner I would go with the 589 M/T....if u love mud go with the 589 M/S...i would avoid different tire sizes form front to back...puttin your bike off balance kould effect your driving and be dangerous...25 inchers should not be to big for your quad...prolly bog down a lot in the stickiest of mud but ground clearance will prolly become an issue before that...that is my advice...

have you seen the new ITP Mudlite XTR's they have incorporated the mudlites liteness and the 589's tread and then between the treads have small paddle like treads. this would be a perfect tire for the mud, dirt, sand, snow etc. I have the 27" mudlites on type 6 wheels and they are an awesome tire.

if your worried about your front end tilting to the front if you put 25's on the front and 26's on the back check out the classifieds parts section for front end lift spacers.
