Im looking to get a new set of tires for my new 850xp. I dont like the factory tires worth a crap and was looking at the itp mud lite xxl. Im just going to be using it for hunting and maybe an occasional trail ride, but really just stuff around the farm. I want a tire that performes good in the mud, sand, or whatever i run into in the woods.

Any advice on the itp's or any other tires that yall run would be great. Thanks for the help!

 

I have 27 in Mudlite XTR"S (stock rims) on mine, It rides great, a little sketchy above 40 mph, but that can be my front end alignment and had loose tie rod ends, fixed that, going to try it tommmorow at speed. They really dig in mud, and muskeg, just don't spin them too fast or they will dig a hole. You have to bend the rears swaybar in a bit, not hard to do with STRONG rachet strap, then your swaybar will clear. I think tire choice has alot to do with geography, XTR"S are well suited up here in ALberta.

 

Mudlites your going to love the ride.They wear great too.I have run them for two years and have no problems.

 

Just an FYI if yours is a 2010,it has more swaybar clearance than the 09's...probably doesn't need any modding to run an 11" tire out back.

 

+1 on the XTR's, they are pricey, but they are radial, so they handle well, and will hold their own elsewhere, I just got mine 2 or 3 weeks ago, but so far I love them, we'll see how they do in the snow, but from what I hear, they're good there too

 

Check out the GBC Grim Reapers, I just put them on my 850xp. Love the design and specs. Haven't ridden them much yet, but will.
