Installed a set of the zilla's on my buddy's ride last year and he says they do great in snow! I've seen them in action in many different situations and am very impressed. I'll have a set before to long.

bighorns & ITP XTR's are totally different tires- from the rubber composition to their application.
I wouldn't buy a set of tires based solely on whether or not it's good in snow- buy them based on your typical riding- and if you need more traction in the snow, just use a set of chains on the rear.

I also have my sights set on a set of 28" zillas but I dont know if they will fit without a lift kit and wheel spacers. but they are really nice tires from what I have heard. lots of people on the snow and mud forum are running them.

In your opinion, what is the best tire in the snow? I still have my stock PXT's and they hold their own plowing but I seem to have some issues in deep snow...I basically use my sportsman mostly for plowing and hunting...I know alot of guys like XTR's but I am leaning towards Maxxis Zillas...Also, will 28's fit on my '05 without lift on the proper rims? I really don't wanna reclutch so maybe I should get 27's...Well anyway maybe you guys can throw some info my way...Much appreciated...
