I have 26 XL's, 1 1/2" tread instead of the 3/4" on my 02 Foreman and there is some noticable power loss, especially when you ride with a stock foreman, in speed. But power wise I havent had any problems. Never been in a situation where I couldnt make the tires spin. As you know the foreman is geared low for power. Love the tires

I run blackwaters front and back of my 450es, narrower in front and they work fantastic in the mud, but squirrely on pavement. My brother's identical bike with stock tires is about 5-6 kms faster wide open, but a kn filter and jet kit fixed that.

I have rarely gotten it stuck with these tires and am always pulling my buddies out of the big holes.

I am told that mudlites have a thinner sidewall and are more susceptible to sidewall punctures.

My two cents
