Default Outlaw MST's are excellent in snow!

First time I've had to test the MST's in snow. We had about a foot of wet snow last night. I went out and played with a bunch of guys on their snow sleds! Finally, I went off on a narrow woods trail with lots of sharp rocks and long stretches of foot deep water. When I came back, couple hours later, hmm, they had tried to follow me, but had to turn around. They were still ripping up and down my field. MST's are great, Mud, Snow, and Trail, very good tires, do everything well!

I guess they live up to the name then. The itp 589's I had on my first Grizzly 660 were pretty good snow tires as well. We haven't gotten much snow here last 2 years so I haven't really gotten my Brute out in it yet. It has finally gotten cold enough to snow this week but none yet this year. I was really digging the warmer weather, a week ago it was 65F. Its about 20 deg colder today but still slightly above average.

That tread pattern seems to be one of the better all-around tires for pretty much anything. I had ITP Mudlite XTR's on my Polaris Sportsman X2. Made a ton of difference in the mud.

They have done a good job in mud, and are very nice on the trail, but, I was really surprised with the snow traction! I don't think my neighbors on the snow sleds expected to see a crazy old guy on an Arctic Cat ATV go blasting by.
