i have a 2003 big bear 400 and i am wondering what tires to get. i am thinking of 26" kenda executioner tires, bear claws. or xl mudlites. your opinion would be greatly appreciated.

 

i just got a set of claws for my Grizz,and love um,,,when they wear out,im getting anouther set

i heard that the ITP tires have a poor wear life,,,just what i heard,i havnt owned any

 

it might be awhile till you get another set of them. the bear claws i have on my beartracker are still in good tread and they are like a year old and have been drivin on the road alot

 

Just as a note this thread will probably get more positive replies if you post it in the tires/suspension area.

Beartrackers are good thick tires, but they are extremly heavy. I had a beartracker a few years back with sur-traks, and a buddy had a recon with bearclaws. We used to drag race all the time (he was always about one bike length in front of me) after we both got new tires, he was one bike length behind me. Nothing else was changed. If you go to each tires website, you can usually find the tires weight. We just looked up a 22 inch bearclaw, and it was 25 lbs, this compared to the 17 that the sur-traks are.
