Go for the bi claws. I have driven on a quad with dear claws and it is really bumpy and uncomfortably. The 589's seem to look like the treads will wear down fast because they are connect with the tire at a 90 degree angle. It tri claws i think over do it but the bi claws seem to be aggresive but not bumpy becasu of the big curve in them and look like they will not wear fast because they go like down the tire at a 45 degree angle.

I have Blackwater XT's on my Forman. They ride really well and are crazy in the mud!! 6-ply makes them almost bullet proof too. Best investment yet.

No, Blackwater XT's are all 27" tall, 9" in front and 12" in the rear. Fit on stock rims and stock suspension with no rubbing ever. Got them at Honda one 3 years ago, best price in town at the time because they were sitting on the showroom floor for awhile. Can't remember for the life of me the price, under well under $150 per tire, maybe $450-500 taxes in.

I'm thinking of getting some mudbugs for my rancher...is there anywhere in St. John's you can buy ATV tires other than the ATV dealerships?

Andy at Kings Bridge can bring in any style and size ATV tire, he can even bring in any Honda Bike at a greatly reduced rate from Nova Scotia. Fun & Fast also carries lots-o-tires.

GreatCanadian, Royaldistributing.com sells tires out of Ontario but the shipping might kill you. It may be cheaper to buy local but your PST is retardedly high isn't it? You may be better off buying from Ontario-no tax except GST.

Also maybe try your local tire shops. Kal Tire, Tirecraft, and Fountain Tire all sell ATV tires.

15% HST in NF (this is PST & HST combined) Total tax before this was 20% in NF.
