Default Swap Fox mudders

Friend of mine just sized up on some Swap Fox that look like the Mudlites, for his 700 Grizz. He got 27" for fornt and 28" for back. Guess he is getting ready for our muddy weekend in Canada, in the spring, already.

Pricing wasn't so bad on them. Curious as to how these are? They look like a nice tire. I think they are radial too.

Any comments???

"He got 27" for front and 28" for back"
Make sure your friend bought matched sized tires. Different widths are OK, but the diameter should be the same on a 4x4.

I have 28's on my sportsman 500 with a 2" lift, they ride awesome and always pulled me through the deepest of mud holes. A great all around tire.

The grizzly and probably every other 4x4 ( I think the outty's come 26" tires) come stock w/ 25" tires on 12" rims, 8" widths in the front and 10" width in the back.

I dont know personally but EVERYONE says to NOT run different height tires on 4x4s.

thats wht I thought. We had the discussion again last night. He is checking it out.

Saw his mudders, wow they are some deep tread. Should work out well.

WEST : Did you notice much of a power loss, esp. in the deeper mud?
