Lookin for everyones help here, I'm lookin to get some serious mud tires. I want to be able to pull through the nastiest mud imaginable. They're goin on a 04 big bear not lookin to go any bigger than 26 but would like to stay with the stock size of 25. I like the vampire asx but they're only 4 ply. Has anyone had experience with these tires and is the 4 ply rating giving you a problem with unwanted flats. If anyone has any other suggestions on tires I would be interested in please send em my way. Thanks for all your help in advane.

I think you would be well pleased with the 589's. I went w/ my buddies Friday on a ride. Both ride Racher S. One 2003 model the other 2005. One has 26' Mudzillas, the other 26' 589's. They hooked bumpers, and it was a dead even. Neither pulled the other. The 589's ride really good for a mudtire, and have some pretty deep lugs. They are also lighter than the Zillas. I think the Zillas would clean better than the 589s, but how much are you really gaining? I think the 589s are a geat mudtire, and a decent trail tire. The Mudzillas are maybe a better MUD tire, but not a good trail tire. The Zillas feel like you are rock crawling on flat ground. This is just my recent observation.

There are three main things you want when mudding:
1. Good tires
2. Ground clearance
3. Power
There is another big factor when mudding and that's experience but unfortuniately you can't buy that in a store. With your size quad I think I would go with 25" or 26" ITP MudLites or 589s.
