Default Which tires?

I need some recomendations here guys. I have a 96 250 suzuki quad runner. Front tires are 22 x 8-10 Backs are 24 x 11-10. I have seen that this limits me a little on selection and I would definatly like to stay with these tire sizes. I dont want to spend alot of cash on these tires as this will become my wifes quad by this winter and she probably wont ride all that often. I need a tire that will do well in these conditions - Trail riding, pulling and some mud. Now where the problem I am having making my own choice is this. I want it to do as LITTLE damge to the lawn as possible. I am going to be using it to pull my 60" swisher to mow my 15 acres and I would like to save the lawn as much as possible. I do know the wider turns and ect I make the less damage I will do but at the same time I am sure a pair of Gators on the back would do some damage no matter howcareful I was. So any input and idears is greatly appreciated.

The 489 might be a good choice,they are cheap and do good in light mud,ect.They didnt seem
to tear up my yard.... And yes the gator tire is very aggressive and will tear up your yard easily.

Thanx I looked at the 489's and I am definatly considering them. The other tire which I am looking at right now is Dirt Devil A/T's. Anyone have experience with them in grass?

the 489's came stock on my Arctic Cat 250 I still have them I ride them around the yard no tearup unless you get crazy, and they are great in light mud, but not the heavy stuff it just cakes in a they turn into slicks but the cleanout it great
