I was wondering what tire people like better? I drive foreman 450s, and am stuck between buying either.

I ran Kendas on my 400 and 2 buddies have them on their 450's no problems what so ever and as such would run them again without question! Either seem like good tires, just pick whichever one you want or flip a coin!

I ran Bear claws for 3 years in mud snot and gravel roads, They still had lots of meat on them when i sold my sportsman 500.;
My buddy put them on his honda 400 foreman loves them but go smaller on the front and or bigger on the back. his comment the first time riding in really bad mud was Wow you can get out of the ruts now and he didn't get stuck well that time eh!lol
Giver id say BEARCLAWS!~

mudlover, could you tell me size of tires your friend put on his bike. I want to put 27's all away around, but afraid they might rub on my stock machine. What sizes would you/your friend suggest to put on my foreman 450.

He ran same size as stock. I wouln't go that big without checking with ITP I think they offer them as a pakage all on rims.
Also i would run the same question in the honda forum to see the response?
27 inch will rub i would imagine you dont have that much clearance do you? Spacers and a lift kit would get you one BAd Honda!!!!
Check Royal disrubuting.ca for a size chart with your year and model.
I will check as well!

I haven't used the Bear Claws, but I like the Dirt Devils so much I put them on both our Grizzlies. Go with the 26's to get the bigger lugs an 6 ply.
