Default Outlaws on Rubicon???

I've been thinking about putting 26-10-12, 26-12-12 Outlaws on my 02 Rubicon. Wondering if they will shake my teeth out??? Is the mud performance worth it and can you trail ride between mudholes without to much trouble?

I have been running 28 inch outlaws for years now. They are made for 100% mud. With that said, they are not designed for trails.

Take a look at the XL Mud Lite by ITP in 26" they have a deep lug and a center lug so your teeh stay in. they seem to be a good tire for all around. But do not go with the 12" wide on the back use the 10" wide all the way around they will work better.

A good mud tire is definatly worth the money if your going to use it and if you only use a couple of pounds of air in each tire it will ride ok.

They will pull any mud you can find and give your rig that built for mud look.
Those green ones are unique.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

They do pretty good, haven't really put them to the test yet. Need to put them in the black hole-without ice! Could barely stay on bike at first (30+ psi), but wanted to make sure the beads were good and set. Just aired them down about 1 hour ago to 9psi and it made a big difference. Still rough at low speed but better. Not so squirrely. They definately grip any thing they touch.

You need to let me put them on the Bear with the locker to put them to the test.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

With 9psi in an any atv tire it would ride kind of bad, if you go over rocks and a lot of bumps that would jar you around I would recommend about 3.5-5psi. Hope this helps
