Default SWAMP LITE??

How do these tires compare in tread depth to the Mudlite XT. I too have a 400 outy and am considering the swamplite but I like the tread depth of the Mudlite XT. I do not want to go to 26" I think it will hurt performance but not sure. Any insight would help. By the way up here in c "A"n"A"d"A" Eh. they are hard to get so far but if they've got the tread depth I want em.

Tread depth is 3/4". The tread on 26" tires is deeper something like, 1 1/8". I wouldn't hesitate
to get get 26" I don't believe there is enough difference in weight to make a noticable difference plus you will gain a little ground clearance.

To get some better answers ask, Shane at Trax Motorsports he a real nice guy and is the seller of most of them
on Ebay. sales@traxms.com

Hey, I like that winch mount, great idea!

wideopenrider,

That quad your talking about that about rips the handle bars out of your arms might be from his toe-out, if it's out too far then it would cause it to "seek" on the trail. He might wanna measure to see that his tires have 0 toe-out or maybe toe'd-in a tad. If it's toed in too much it'll be heavy steering.
