Is anyone running 26" Titan 589's on a rancher?
Or 589's at all. I would like to hear how well they work in all situations on your machine. I am thinking of new tires, and want a good trail/mud/etc. tire. Thanks

We run Titan 489's on King Quads and have been real pleased at increase in traction in all areas over the OEM tires. The 589's should do even better than the 489's, just a little rougher on smooth trails.

They should fit and do very well. I was getting read to buy a set when I ran across a great deal on a set of mud runners. The ride on hardpack will be a little rough compared to the stockers.

I've got 589's on my 450es and they work great! I think they do well on the hardpack trail and when you find some mud they're definitly nice to have on.

I have Titan 589s on my stock Rubicon wheels. 26x9x12 in front and 26x12x12 in back. They ride very smooth on concrete and hard ground. But, they pull great in mud. They came in very close to the Vampire in last year's mud tire shootout. I think they are a great all-around tire.

I cannot tell any difference in power loss. The stock tires were 25" Dirt Hooks.
