Default road tires?

What are some tires i could get for my kodiak? I have 26 vamps but they wear pretty bad and I need to find some tire that are good on the road and in water.
If any tires come to mind let me know which ones.

cause they have a Live axle so when you turn one tire breaks loose.

Thats a good point... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] But they dont stop too good either,whys that? I mean hitting water with a quad is like hitting diesel with a bike,why no traction???

I once went half way across the other side of a street in one unsceduled skid,good job it was 4 o´clock in the morning and noone was coming the other way [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Damn golf course sprinklers [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img]

i agree with you about the shredders, in fact i think any GBC made tire has good wear, i got shredders on my LT250R and mud sharks on my Honda 250R and i ride roads a lot and both have good wear and they are both made my GBC
