I agree, Great price for good atv tires. ( not easy to do). My favorite tire so far has been the spartacus tire from greenball motorsport. However when I looked at getting another set the price had gone up another $200 for the set. Paid $394 for my first set (installed) now close to $600 not installed....,ouch!!!

so you said the 25x8x12 front tires rub on the tir rods? I thought only the 9 inch wide fronts had the issue with rubbing? I was about to order these tires in 26x9x12 26x11x12 rear until I read a fee posts saying the 9 wide will rub, so I bought the same size as stock for that reason. I decided not to buy wheels this year

Yes, they do rub. I got some thick washers from home depot to give clearance. You don't need much. They just barely touch without washers. Other people flip their tie rods, but I didn't want to mess with that.

tires were delivered today, had them mounted for under $22 after tx. Not many people know that you can have tires mounted for only $5+tx per wheel at Wal-Mart. I've been doing it for years. Only complaint is they always fill the tires up all the way , well Over recommended psi. Anyway never had a leak. I'll update tomorrow after I throw them on and take a picture. Hopefully They

don't rub the front tie rods

They're good looking tires. The lugs look nice and tall.

Very nice!! Congratulations on the new shoes. Glad to hear they don't rub. I just got a set of wheels for mine. No more washers or rubbing worries! Those look pretty sweet. Let is know how well they perform. My Artrax are great in everything except loose deep sand.
