Default Mud Lite Tires

I was wondering if anyone knows anything about ITP Mudlite Tires. I own an 02 sportsman 400 and I want to put mud lites on it. The problem is that the back rim on these quads is a wide 10 inch rim. The fronts are 12 inch, normal width. I currently have Maxxis Mud Bugs on it which hook up great, but they are really heavy and hard on my machine. Mud Lites would make it work less. So do they make mud lites to fit my quad? Thanks

Ok. How about in the mud? And was it hard to find a wide tire to fit the back rims?

Check out the maxxis zilla's. They are even lighter then the mudlites and don't have the sidewall problems that I hear about the lites. Weight seems to be a factor so it's worth looking into. JMO

Do you have a clutch kit? If not I would recommend getting one. Then you can stick with what you like and the machine won't work as hard. Like the mudlites but I think Zilla's, gorilla Silverbacks, or Highlifter Outlaws are much better.
