My brother just got a set of Trail claws for his Warrior. He got them for snow and mud, and yes they are a low pro tire and are flat across the top when you look at them. The only bad thing about them is they have no side lugs for side bite. If you try to slide....well.....the power slide turns into a spin out very quick if you are not carefull.

My cousin has Spider tracks on his Warrior and he like them also.

I just got a set of Mud Sharks for my 400ex. The Trail Claws nor the Spiders come close to the performance of the Mud Shark. My brother and cousin both rode my bike with the Sharks on it and they both agreed that they should have got Sharks also. They are very aggressive and still slide well, just one more tire to consider.

Yea, All Traks are low pro also but I have heard and seen that they vibrate soo much that they wear the bearings out of the swing arm. My buddy bought a new set of All Traks and 3 mons later he was installing new bearings in his swing arm.

If you run alot of hard pack you will want to stay away from the All Trak. This is just from what I have heard and seen. Some people have them and love them.

The Sharks are a great all around tire, they work well in anything, dirt, gravel, sand, mud ect... and they still slide well.

I got mine from Racky Mountain ATV they were $57.99 each. For 30 bucks more, I got mine mounted on wheels.

I loved the stock EX tires, they performed well in all conditions. I only ride my bike 5-6 times when I took them off, I got the 400ex at the end of December, and it is still like new, and so are the stock tires.

The main reason I took them off is because I have seen time and time again 400ex's with side walls blown out. The sides of the stock tires are very thin, almost like an innertube. I wanted something with at least 4ply sidewalls.
