Good point. I am still thinking about that, however the 25"ers have 5/8 tread depth and the Dirt Devil 26"ers have 1 1/4 inch of tread. Dirt Devils from 4atvtires.com 189.90 for the 25's shipped or 269.80 for the 26ers.
Does the same thing apply with the Bearclaws? The site doesn't list tread depth. I don't have a problem staying with stock size, but would like more tread. The Bearclaws are 229.80 for 26/9/12 front and 26/12/12 rear or 189.80 for stock.
Would prefer the Bearclaws so I can stay at 9 inch on front to avoid as much overspray as possible. I would imagine the 10 inch in front get you pretty dirty!
Any opinions???
On a sidenote: Bearclaws 26/9/12 and 26/12/12 = 110 lbs
Bearclaws 25/8/12 and 25/10/12 = 84 lbs
Dirt Devils 26/12/12 and 26/10/12 = 106 lbs
Dirt Devils 25/8/12 and 25/10/12 = ??? Anyone know ???
I do have a Dalton Clutch Kit already installed...

I just don't want to lose mileage too much. Right now the quad is doing awesome - probably 120 miles to a tank.
My riding is mostly hardpack, hillclimbs over dirt, rocks, tree roots. Very little mud. A lot of rocky creek crossinga deep enough you can't see enough to avoid a possible sharp rock. Lot of logging roads, and in winter, snow covered logging roads. Lot of hardpack tight trail riding. Topend seems to stay at 59MPH with stock tires and specified air pressure. My friend has an unclutched stock 03 Vinson and he hasn't got it over 58 at topend.
I put a 2 inch gash in my left rear and I have no idea how - probably one of those hidden sharp rocks in a deep mud puddle.

Thanks for the info. Isn't 5/8 tread vs. 1 1/4 inch tread a concern when upgrading? $80 is a lot of money, I agree.
Why the dirt devils and not the bear claws? I have also heard the dirt devils run small, so does that mean they will be smaller than the stock dunflops? According to the specs on the bear claws manufacturing home page, the diameter is exactly as advertised. The only thing they don't mention is tread depth. If I could confirm the 25" bear claws have decent tread depth AND are really 25" tall I would think that would be the way to go, no?
If you end up steering me to the devils, do you think 10 inch wide up front would stick out a lot?

well the bear claws i hear last a long time so that should be good as for the dirt devils well look at your back tire that is i think 25-10-12?? and think that would be up front i don't think it would stick out that far but i still will be going with the dirt devils my friend has them on his bear tracker and they hock up really good in mud loose dirt had packed dirt and mud he goes right threw them so i would go with the dirt devils 25 or 26
