New tires coming soon but i cant decide which ones!!</end quote></div>I have had Kenda bear claws and Carlisle Trail wolfs. Front and rear for both brands. I gave up mud got rid of the bearclaws. TrailWolfs made it tippy. So I put the Goodyears on like on the Honda Recon and think they are the best tires for trail riding so far.BuckBilly's OzarkThis is a picture with trailwolfs on.

Nice Ozark!! I need a winch pretty badly considering my swamp. How did it run with the Kendas on it? Did you notice any HP loss??
I think ITP Should make a light weight Mudlite XTR for people with smaller ATVs like us!! The Mudlite XTRs they have now don't fit any ATV that is not 4 wheel drive. How cheap! lol

So it is true that there is a lot of power loss with those Kendas?? I was thinking of buying GBC Gators (22x10-9 for the rear, and possibly 22x7-11 for the front) because the 22x10-9s only weigh another 4 pounds each over the stock tires. I was hoping I wouldn't have a lot of HP loss with them considering the swamp I must drive through can be pretty bad at times. Now, is another 8 pounds on the tires almost the same as carrying another 8 pounds on the rear rack?? Because I know my ozark can get through most of my swamp with me and my friend on it and I dought the tires will make the quad bog down as much as it did with my friend and I being stupid, and yes we got stuck....big time...lol. Have you used your winch yet?? If so, hows it work and what brand is it??

They should have kept the 4 wheel drive on these Ozarks. A 4 wheel drive on these would have made these things awesome. I plan on buying a small plow for it so I can plow my driveway in the winter. Although tires chains would help, I'd prefer having four wheel drive.

I have a 1700lbs warn winch. I would recomend a 2500lbs winch. Also I put a 60lbs weight on my trailer hitch. Done this since new in 02.

Bummer. Wow. I didn't think that there would be that much of a difference in weight!! Oh well. I will also have to buy a Dynojet kit so I will gain at least some power back. Wow!! Your Ozark is a 2002?? It looks great and well maintained. Do these Ozarks still run well after a while?? And that was a smart idea to put weight on your trailer hitch!! If only I had-lol. I have to go buy one anyway to pull around my trailer.

How do those Trail Wolfs work?
