Default New tires for my Eiger...

I am interested in Dirtdevils, Gators, Mudlights, and ITP 589's. What do you think I should get? Any advice is appreciated, also can I go up to 26"? Will get rims too, thinking something like the ITP's C-series, I want to get better traction on sidehills (thats the most important, tipped mine over before) and I do a lot of trailriding also, but mud and hardcore 4wheeling is always part of my trips.

P.S. I hear the Mudlights wear easy, is that true?

I am going to put Dirt Devils on my daughters. While she does luv to bury it in the mud we also trail ride alot and I think those are smoother on the trails then my Mud Bugs. But with Mud Bugs I can go many places in 2wd that I used to use 4wd mud wise. 26" will fit no problems with new rims, don't know if stock rims will rub up front cause of the offset. Gators are the same as MudBugs and are choppy at slow speeds and vibrates at high, reduce the air in them and that somewhat goes away. I've heard that Mudlites have weaker side walls and some getting sidewall punctures and that's where they reduced the weight at ??? Don't know for sure. And I've heard of people liking MudBugs/Gators more then 589's. 589's is what I was going with and at the last minute changed to MudBugs, glad I did. Look into the new Maxxis tire I've heard good on those, don't remember the name. I think COB has those on his, any way it'll be an great improvement over stock.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Don't get forumitise and let too many opinions confuse the tire purchase. I've driven myself loco with that in the past.

Good luck Rick

Thanks for the advice guys. Holeshots are interesting, but I think I might go with DD or gators.
