I have an 04 Grizz and I found out this weekend that the stock tires or hoorrible in the mud. I was not impressed with how they worked in thick mud, But I was determined to keep trying to make it all the way through or bury it. It didn't take much to bury it so I guess mud-lites are in the works. I didn't figure they would be that good and this was super thick and deep mud. It sure was fun though and the new warn 2,500 lb winch worked flawlessly. I mostly ride through the woods, But on occasion want to go mudding and there is always the unexpected mud holes. Are the mud-lites a good choice for an all around tire ?? I don't want something so aggressive it tears the trail up, But these stock tires just don't make the grade.

 

you don't want a real mud tire but somthing that can make it threw the sticky stuff?? umm. i would say maybe bear claws or dirt devils you could get 26 27 28 dirt devils which have bigger tread than 25 and below go to rockymountain.com

 

I found out the exact same thing you did. I'm going to be getting a set of 26 in. Dirt devils. The tread pattern is pretty close to the same, they weigh less than a pound more than the Mud Lights and they cost about $10 less than the Mud Lights a piece depending on where you get them.

 

I never realised how terrible the stock tires were until I went to 1" over Mud-Lites. The machine handles like a sport bike compared to before and seems to go almost anywhere.

 

will the 26" tires fit on my stock rims ?? aren't they wider than the stock tires ?? I have a camo grizzly and I like the stock black rims.

 

yes i'm pretty sure they will fit ask around here first

 

Just put a set of mud lites on a sportsman about a hundred mile ago. They ride great and seem fair in the mud, not as good as my gators but much better for a trail tire. They ride almost as good as the ATR's but cost less. The mud lites seem soft but they don't show any signs of wear yet.
