I too am in the same boat wondering what to piut on my Sportsman. Hard decision there are so many out there. Alot of guys up here run Vamps and Outlaws, but they are the serious mud freaks who live to mud and think cruising is odd. I like the Blackwaters they seem to bee a good in between tire. I am thinking also of getting a set of rims and tires so that way I can take them off and switch back to the stockers for cruising with my girlfriend and having some kick butt mudders for riding with the mud nuts. A few guys do that they say it is easier then trying to buy an all round tire that might not be much better than stock in the rough stuff. This way I would have the best of both worlds.
