I still do, I think the PXT's are a decent tire for a first timer. My buddy has a 700 king Quad and His tires are pretty weak stock tires.

 

The people who think their tires are <u>horrible</u> must be riding something other than Polaris. Polaris has had the the best stock tires for years, if not always. A lot of other ATV tires are 1" shorter than a comparable Polaris, and have less tread depth, too.

My original Goodyear Tracker Ps from 1997 with over 4,000 miles on them <u>still</u> had <u>a lot more tread</u> on them than my best friend's Grizzly 660 <u>the day he bought it</u>. They're still available, but not stock.

The old Titan 489s weren't as good as Tracker Ps, but were still pretty good for stock when you compare them to everything else made in the last 15 years. Also available from Titan in an improved 6-ply X/T version with taller lugs.

The Goodyear Rawhide Grips were so gnarly they were tearing things up so they quit using them after one model year. They're also still available, but not stock.

The Polaris PXTs (aka Carlisle A.C.T.s) were the <u>first</u> radial tires stock on <u>any</u> utility quad. They're the only 26" tires stock on anything that I know of.

Hello All,



I have 700 miles on my '07 Grizz 450 and I am still running the stock Maxxis tires... they do a good job on everything I ride as I don't get into alot of mud...



In my case - money doesn't grow on trees and I can't justify spending $300-$400 to replace tires that are still working fine...



Your thoughts[img][/img]</end quote></div>

I completeley agree. I still run mine and if they wear out then I will get aftermarket. But if they're still good, then why waste all that money? Unless you race or something.

 

Stock tires and wheels work just fine on my POPO,,,,,,

 

yes. I really have no choice right now. 8 [ But when I do get new tires they'll probably be mudzillas.

 

I realize its tough dishing out money to replace stock tires but I think its more of a waste running them and not utilizing your quads full potential. I replaced perfectly good Maxxis tires with a new set of ITP Terracross and could not happier. There isn't a more significant modification than good radial tires. Breakdown and spend the money,it's like getting a new machine.

 

I still run the stock tires ,I,m not going to throw out exspensive Goodyear 6 ply tires untill they wear out. Some manufacturers like,Honda,AC and Yamaha put cheap 2 ply tires on there ATVs and I can see why you would toss them on day one.
