whellieking, I have the stock 23x7x10 on the front and 22x11x10 on the rear. The fronts are $36 a piece and the rears are $45 a piece through Rocky Mt ATV. Shipping is a little on the steep side though. If I remember correctly it ran me right around $200 delivered. I agree with NCscrambler. Your best bet is to stay with the stock size. Any more questions just holler[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

 

Holeshot XCT all around in stock sizes. I run 4 seasons a year on these tires I was surprised in witer. Great on hard pack and loose dirt. Puncture resistant - I havent got a flat in 3 years. Drawback is the XCT is the heavest of the Holeshot (or simialr tread) tires. Not a problem on a 550 lbs machine IMO.

 

I run spidertracks on my KLF 400, they are great in the mud and snow. Not bad for the sand either, for trail riding I think they are one of the best tires. Good side hill bite on them, never had a flat on them. The only draw back on them I have is when someone is behind me. It will throw big #ss rocks at them [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

try kenda claw tires they get good reviews in magazines and they were rated higher that maxxis razer tire and holeshot tires. there website is kendausa.com

 

For and all round trail tire good in all conditions it is hard to beat Kenda Bear Claws.
I have run them on my Scram for 2 years no flats and have gone farther in the mud than alot of utility machines with strickley mudd tires but I guess alot of that has to do with the driver too

 

so are you saying that the front and back tires should be the same size NCScrambler

 

I really liked the GBC Dirt Devils that I had all the way around. Not much will slow you down in 2 wheel drive, let alone 4x4. They are 6ply for durability, and pretty cheap per tire from rocky mountain. They wear awesome...hardly show it...and traction and clean out is superior...I loved em!

 

No I am saying it is best to stick with whatever size came factory for your atv. With some Polaris's that means same front and back, but some like mine are 23 front and 22 back. As long as you keep the ratio the same.. for example if factiry is 23/ 22 and you go to a 21/20, then that is fine. That applies to 4wd machines only. The 4wd will work in some cases, but it is better for the 4wd system to stay with the stock size or the same ratio.

 

What is the stock size tires for a 2004 500 scrambler? Just bought a used bike and it has 23front and 22 rear.
