If I had it all to do over again I'd go w/ mudlites on the c-series!! They will billy goat thru anything but for speed there not good [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Heck, if you're worried about speed, ride a sporty, right?

Reviews on the XTR say it cleans out extremely well, everything I've read says it's exactly what you want. 14" if you ride trails more than mudbog, 12" if you mudbog more than trails.
Originally posted by: RancherATCrazy What do you recommend MB? I am buying a set of 4 next friday. I know the stockers I am running right now are heavy as hell but I think that is mainly the steel rims??? I am not looking foor a mud tire persay but a good trail tire that does well in mud, I thought the XTR's were the ticket [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

When we rode at China Hat this year I did some speed testing at 5000 feet, to compare to my sea level performance. I lost 9 miles and hour at 5000 feet. I used the same GPS and the quad's speedo showed the same lose. That's a bunch of power gone and if I had 1" taller tires it would have been about 20 percent worse. For the slow trail work I can always use low range and the gear ratio will cover up the torque lose but also cuts top speed by 60 percent, which on the trails is no big deal but then I have to shift out of low range when we hit the roads again. If I had a sportie I would get myself hurt and I just don't heal like I used to.

Yeah, but you never worry about top speed anyway. Heck, if you're worried about speed, ride a sporty, right?
Originally posted by: Bear4570 I would never (and didn't either) go to a larger diameter tire on my 400, they just plain rob to much torque to the rear wheels and beat up on the top speed.
