I recently bought Kenda Bearclaws and they are an incedible tire. Chapparral is the cheapest place I found to get tires. It takes five working days to get them.

The tires I’m running on my SP500 right now are Goodyear Mud Runners but I ran Kenda Bear Claws for a year and really liked them. They’re on my wife’s Mag 500 now and even if they aren’t a top rated mud tire they’re no slouch in the slop. They’re lightweight (but still 4 ply) and handle well. I’d rate them a great all-around tire and wouldn’t hesitate to buy them again. BTW, our terrain ranges from swamp to loose rocks to rock fields, with a few gravel roads thrown in between.

I have the bearclaws on my scrambler 500 and I love them. They work very good and I got mine from because they said they would beat the lowest price by one dollar and they are alot closer to NC so I got them quicker. The best price was from <a href="http://www.chaparral-racing.com">Chaparral but they are in CA so it would have taken a few more days. Either one has great tires but Dennis kirk is more because they say free shipping but they include the shipping costs in the price of the tires. That's why I got the low price from Chaparral and got Dennis Kirk to ship that for free. You can see my Scrambler with the bear claws on it if you click on the link below.

I hope this helps,
