Carlisle AT 489, Kenda Bounty hunters, or ACTs/Wetlands
#1
OK, I've got 26" swamplights on a grizzly 700 right now. They are heavy/stiff and I want to go back to a lighter more flexible tire. I was looking at the AT489 for an all around tire.
Does anyone have any opinions on this tire? I loose a lot of crawling and hill climbing power with the heavy 26" swamplights and would like to get that back.
My swamplights weigh 114 lbs together. The 26" 489s weight 88 lbs together (26 lb difference), and the 25" weigh 74 lbs together (40 lb difference)
would the 26" 489s 26 lb weight advantage make much of a difference over the swamplights, or would I have to go to 25" to see a good difference in climbing power?
The stock grizzly tires are ok, but the 3 after market tires I listed look like they would bite a lot better.

the Wetlands were excellent tires. Better than my 489s and worth the little extra money. Have not tried the BHs, but have heard good things about them. Radials are the way to go.
