Got The MudRunners on!!
#1
Finally got the MudRunner EMT's installed on my Rancher. Had to look all over for a tire shop to change tires on the rims but, finally found 1 at a fairly reasonable price. $15 per tire. Honda shop wanted $25 !! Anyway after getting the air pressure down to 6psi from the 25psi they had them at I took her out for a short ride.
They seem to ride a bit rougher but, the traction and steering difference is amazing ! I gained 1 1/2 inches ground clearance meassured at the front skid plate and floor boards.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] I took some pics of them i can send if needed since i don't have a web site anywhere. Thanks to all who have answer my numorous questions about the mudrunners. I think I'll be very happy with them from what i have heard and little ridding i did tonight.

$15.00 a tire, OOOUCH!! I guess I got pretty lucky, I found a local shop that did mine for $6.00 apiece. I think they regretted it though, it took about 70psi to get the beads to seat. You'll love the extra ground clearance and the ride really isn't bad, at least the regular Mudrunners aren't too bad. Maybe the run flats have a stiffer sidewall?
Have you found yourself going outside just to look at em? Man, they sure look good on a Rancher 4x4!

I'm not sure how stiff the sidewalls are on the Non EMT Mudrunners but, on these i sat on them with no rim and they didn't compress any and i weigh around 240lbs. I did give them a bath before I even put them on the Rancher and then took pics as I installed them. I agree $15 is a bit steep but the only other place that would touch them (besides the Honda dealer) wanted $12 and they couldn't get the beads broke on the foreman rims. I took 1 pic with 1 side mounted and stock on the other and it looks like ship listing LOL If anybody wants a set of stock 25in Dunlops off a 450 foreman es let me know. They have about 50 miles on them
