Default Need tire and wheel recommendation

My 99 Arctic Cat 500 4X4 needs tires. The wheels are those nasty 10.5" which limits tire choices. Most of my riding is WV trails so I am thinking about the Mud Lites. Is that a good choice?

I am also wondering about steel VS aluminum wheels. Cost is a factor so it seems steel is probably the best way to go but I would like to hear opinions.

Thanks

if you are a really agressive rider and you have bent your wheels before then you should just get steel wheels aluminum would just crack where steel will bend but you can hammer it back out. As for your tires what kind of terrain do you drive in.
