i have a 2002 yamaha kodiak 400 with blackwaters on with almost no tread left.
i wouyld like to know which tire is the best for deep snow action 12 inch of packy wet snow and a 7 inch hard base that calapses some times.

i was thinking of buying these

maxxis mud bug
blackwater 589 m/t

any body know of a beter tire for deep snow

i have 12 rims in the rear and 7 in the front

 

I run my Mudmachine Bi/Tri claws year round and they do great in the snow, but they are 27" tires and I think you need to stay around 26". if you mostly ride snow, you should go with a tall narrow tire so it"cuts" through the snow. if you go with a tight tread pattern the tires won't "clean out", and will become plugged with snow. if this happens...well you get the idea. don't jump on the first thing you see. my self, I would recomend "Mud machine" AT's or Vamps, both will ride well, and you won't have clean out problems.

 

what do you think about these maxxis mud bug blackwater 589 m/t i also ride on dirt trails
