I've narrowed it down to the ITP mud lites and the ITP 589 m/s. I will be doing mainly hardpack trail riding with a few mud holes here and there with some water also. which is the better of the 2? I am considering the mud lites because they are cheaper. any thoughts?

If you main riding will be hard pack I'd go with the Mud Lite's. The 589's are great in the mud but hard pack they can be "squirrly".

Hello. I'm not sure what kind of atv you have but I would go with the Mudlite for your driving conditions. I'm also not sure if ground clearence is an issue for you either but if your only driving on hard pack the 25's should be all you need.

Good luck and let us know what tire you go with.

hey guys, i got the 26" mudlites with c-series rims. all i can say is awesome. these tires look beefy and the rims look sweet. looks like a whole different quad. the ride is great for such a massive tire. i highly recommend this combination.

I was going to get the C-Series wheels BUT I use my bike for hunting and did'nt want those shiny wheels in the woods. I'd like to hear what you think of the Mud-Lites, I'm looking for some tires for the wife.
