I have M/S' on both of 650's and they are to say the least AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Last time out riding, I spent a lot of time yanking a grizzly and some sportsmans out of the mud.....then I would proceede to ride through the hole that they would get hung up in!!!!!!!!!

thats what i wanted to hear. i have a rincon so we are about the same. i want something that is light and won't hurt my machine but still has the stuff for the mud. i'm just concerned about clearence with 27" 26" shouldn't be a problem

OOOOOOOOOOOOOPS!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have Kawasaki 650's..... don't know how the Rincon will handle those tires.... they really work well on the Kawasaki's though.

Must have thought I was scanning the Kaw section when I posted! Sorry

589MS is ITP. 589Mt is Titan now made in Mexico. The titan has deeper lugs. Go with the Mud Lites (USA) in the 26" XL tread. Use the 26x10x12 all the way around that works the best. Also the Mud Lite is around 15 to 20 lbs. less weight per tire than the 589 of the same size.

I like the deep ag style treads on the 589MS. Great traction.
