ATR's! I got a set of 25's and loved them. Then the 26" version came out and the rears were increased but the fronts were not. I have sent the fronts back to ITP as requested. I'll post on that soon.
The 26" rears are taller and rounded more. They seemed to ride better than the 25" set and did not have a hi speed wobble. But the 26" fronts are the exact same height and width as the 25" fronts. Several minutes on the phone with ITP getting them measurments and such and they wanted to see them.
We'll see.

Do a search on the ATR. Among others, I have written reviews. Pavement will eat any tire up. They are a huge improvment over the Dunlop's to say the least.
I lost no ground clearance. When you inflate an ATR and a Dunlop on the same rims at their recomended psi's, not mounted on the quad the ATR will look shorter. But when under the weight of the quad the Dunlops really crush. I measured my Prairie from the bottom edge @ center of the floor boards before removing the Dunlops. At the tire shop when I seen a mounted ATR side by side with my Dunlop my heart dropped. I went ahead with it and measured again and was surprised to see no loss at all.
