What type of riding do you do?? If you do normal trail riding with a wide variety of terrain I would suggest a tire like the gators, mudlites, or bearclaws. I really like my bearclaws and I ride hardpack trails, mud, snow and just about every other type of terrain out there. They have a good grip and if aired up good I can still do good power slides. They also wear very good. If you don't drive in any mud I would suggest a less aggresive tire like shredders or bandits.
You can probally find most these tires at rocky mountain atv, dennis kirk or highlifter.

Surprisingly, I really like the stock tires!! In fact, the Recon is the only bike I have ever owned, where I didn't change out the stock tires right away.

Try the ITP mudlite or Dirt Devil 22X11X9. You should be able to get them for $55.00 a tire mounted on your rims. Both tires are light weight and good traction.

Putting big clunkey oversize treads on a light little bike like the Recon, might be a mistake?????
