Default Dirt Tamers, or Bighorns

I am going to buy one of these 2 tires for my Grizzly. Going to go with the 26's. Will they fit stock rims? Are the radials that much better? The Dirt tamers are bias 6 ply. Will they hold up better in the rocks than the radials? Only about $60 difference between the 2 tires, so cost isn't a factor, performance is. Thanks for any input

The radial Bighorn is one of the best trail and rock tires out there. Most of the guys that race utility cross country run them for there traction and their durability.

I got my Bighorns from RockyMountain for approx. $85 ea. with free shipping. Best deal I found. You cant go wrong with the Bighorn!

After doing lots of reading about the performance of both, I think I will go with the bighorns.
