Default Aftermarket rubber

I'm just about to buy a new sp700. I will be using it for hunting/trailriding(50%hardpack/25%mud/25%snow) I was thinking about upgrading the rubber asap. What do you guys think? MUDLITES 26/10-12(front) 26/12-12(back)
589 m/s 26/9-12(front) 26/12-12(back)
or what do you guys think of the new Badlands Polaris put on this year. Have you guys rode on any of these aftermarket tires good/bad?
I'm kind of new to all this if I get the new rubber will they be to big and rub or damage anything? Do I need to get a lift and some spacers? What kind do you recommend?



What should I do!!!! Thanx guys.

For general trail riding like you are doing I think Mud Lites are a good choice. Personally I like 589s and also MudBugs (my present tire) but both will ride a little rough on hard pack. However 589s and MudBugs will give much better traction on snow and mud so it depends on the type of terrain you ride in.

both sound good but remember that the fronts have to be skinny because of the macpherson struts. Highlifter.com tells you which ones fit polaris's

You can go wider with the fronts if you put wheel spacers on.
