I have a couple of buddies running the mud bugs. They seem to be tough and wear well, and are quite good in mud and snow..(unless your the one following them catching the chunks) They do have that floating feeling at higer speeds as most agressive mud tires do. They seem to have about the same performance as the Gators.

ALF03,
Noticed you have a GRIZ 660 w/26" Big Horns. Was wondering how they fit? I have 08 GRIZ 700 was thinking of getting BIG HORNS, but heard they run large can't decide between 25" or 26".

THANKS

Yes, I love the traction expecially on rocks, and yes they do run big i have the 26" and they run closer to 28" actual measurement(bigger than my 27" vampires).....had to cut a fair amount of plastic at back of floorboard (not a bad amount though) and they still rub when hitting ruts and such with a thick chick on the back(but just slightly).....Knowing what I know now, personally I would have went with the 25's. I do like the tires and the fact that nobody else around my county has them. Its nice to be different sometimes..lol

I had them on my Wolverine until I sold it, I ran on mostly hardpack and the odd road, I was amazed at how well they held up, hardly any wear. I was very pleased with them, they did well in mud/snow and hard pack, they didn't make much noise either at full speed.
