Default What tires should i put on my prairie 360

I have a prairie 360 and i was wondering how big of tires and what kind i should put on it. I dont want to lose any power on the trails but i do want to be able to go thru the mud easier. I was thinking mudlites or mudzillas, please help me out.

I have stock size Maxxis Mud Bug on the P360...Nice tire and ride. Stock size look big compared to the Dunlop they come with. So far they have wore good (550 miles)...I would not go bigger then 26" on the P360, you would notice lost of power.

The Mud Bug is between the two you asked about. Mudlites are good if you trail ride alot, but soso in mud and wear is ok. Mudzilla is more geared towards mudding. They will beat you on trail but wear and mud real nice.

Also Maxxis just released a new tire called "Zilla". They look to be a nicer ride then the Mud Bugs

I bought a set of mudlites about 6 months a go for my prairie and have no complaints. Paid under $300 for the set. Haven't been in what I would call "heavy" mud yet but have been in a lot of snow and they work great.

who said they "suck"?

read again....I said so so....They ARE a trail tire that wears faster but rides better compared to the Mudzilla and Mud Bugs..They do not mud better. They are same as a Swamplite, good trail tire with so so mud capabilities..

I stand by my statement "The Mud Bug is between the two you asked about" of Mudzilla and Mudlite...Just because it has "Mud" in its name and every ATV dealer sells them, does not mean it is a mud tire.

You're right, my bad...mis-read you comments...
I have had them in deep mud and water, as well as snow and ice. I havent had experience with the others, but have seen the mudzillas in action. Those sidewalls alone will climb out of deep ruts, sweet!
