Default Zilla tires! to good to be true?

I,m want new tire on my Grizzly with 25" tires stock.
I was going to get 6 ply 25" Mudlite XL with the taller 1.125" lug, the fronts are 8" wide and backs are 10".

The 6ply Zilla however,are cheaper on ebay and even there taller and wider 26"tires ,fronts 9" wide and 11" back and taller 1.19" lug. and weigh the same or less as the smaller 25"Mudlites.

They just seem to good to be true. larger wider 26'" tires with larger lug that are cheaper and lighter then 25".

Even there large 27"x9(20.3lbs) and 27"x11(23.4lbs) do not weigh much more then a 25x8(19.4lbs) and 25x10(22.7lbs) Mudlite XL!

Any body here have them on there ATV?

I know that I have read more positive reviews for the Zilla's. Would be nice if the tire builders had to state the true size.

I have sets on both my bikes. I love them. I would not go with a 8f and 10r combo. They look like pizza cutters. 9/11 or 10/12 is the better choice.
