I went with 27 x 11 x 12 for the rear, and 27 x 9 x 12 for the front. I believe those are the only two sizes avail. in 27".

Let us know how they do when you get them. This could end up being the best tire for the money considering that they are a good $20 per tire cheaper than the big dogs. Also the savings on wheels with the 11" width that will still fit pretty good on stock rims.

Ya, I was real happy with the price of the 589's. All 4 with shipping $325.00 from Rocky Mountain ATV. And reading the mud tire test in ATV magazine a few issues ago? I was sold. I need a all-around type of tire, one that is good on the trail/woods, as well as decent in the mud, and the 589 sounded as good as it gets for my purpose! I will update on how they work out!

Does anyone know if Titan will or does make 589 A/T in the sizes of 24-8,9, or 10-11 and 25-11 or 12-12 or 11. In other words 24-8-11, 24-9-11, or 24-10-11 and 25-11-12, 25-12-12, 25-11-11, or 25-12-12. I would prefer to but 24-9-11 and 25-12-12 on my Honda 300 4x4.
Thanks

Well the 589's are on the Suzuki 500 now and all I need is something to play in! Which will have to be snow for now, which we have VERY little of at that! Might have to get the hose out and let it run and run and run till I get mud, but proberly would only get a skateing rink! Hope for a early spring!!

Well, I guess you could do that on the water hose mudhole to test their traction on ice if you ever get any. Is there somee 589's that'll fit a 300 4x4? They look pretty good and I need some new tires on the 4 by. and when you test them, see how much the vibrate on hard pack, and lemme know.

I also am considering the 589. However I would like to soften my ride on my Wolverine (ITP Blackwaters) some. So I am looking at a combination of the 489 in front and the 589 in the rear. I want the tires to assist in turning on rocky trails (on my way to mud holes)using a more round profile. I emailed Titan and a tire tech emailed me that the combo 489/589 is nice muli use choice.
