Kenda Bear claws

I second that vote. I have them on my Honda Fourtrax and they have been very good.Quote:

Mudlites on my Honda 300. Great tires in bush and on lake in slush and snow.
Kenda Bearclaws or Foreman 500 and 350. Excellent wear, good allround performance and price is reasonable. Royal Distributing had best price when I bought last year
I put new Swamp Lites from Royal Distributing on my 700 Yamaha before the moose hunt and they worked great.
I run them on my 850 sportsman and work greatQuote:

I run the 4Runner Maxx Plus tires from Royal Distributing on my Honda 250. Great budget tire and I’ve been able to get through some very deep muddy trails even without 4x4.
Replaced the OEM Dunlops with these when I bought my King Quad 700 new. Around 3000 km on them, doing some agressive driving, and still have over half the tread left. I avoided ITP Mudlites because of some complaints that the rubber compound was soft, and they wore quite quickly if used on hard pack surfaces. As someone mentioned, check Kijiji for new take offs if you would be happy with an OEM type tire. I found a set of Carlisle 489's from a new machine that I put on my side by side for $200.Quote:

I was always partial and somewhat smitten with the Honda 200 Atc's with the turf tires and the tire in the middle to pack the trails down nicely 😁
I'm on my 2nd Big Red...it's a 200. I hear you about the Turf tires, they do a LOT less damage to the soft ground on a trail. The last one came with the Bear Claws and yes they sure help when going thru the mud holes but unfortunately have resulted in deep ruts on the trails.Quote:

Outlaw MST's. Wear like iron, are good in mud, rock, snow, trails (great all around tire) and they'll get you home if you get a flat/a hole because sidewalls are stiff enough that you can run them with no air in them.
Mudlite XTR’s get my vote, I can go lots of places in 2WD with these
I have 25 inch zillas on my foreman 400. Does a good job plowing my driveway... Have had them in some rough stuff too, performed well, also have several ks on pavement with no real wear problems

X2 on the 4Runner tires from Royal Distributing.. well worth it and they can handle just about anything!
I have ITP Mudlites on my 750 King Quad. You’ll get a stiffer ride or at least I did than the crap OEM Dunlop’s that came with it. The Mudlites are far more puncture resistant and I’ve had no problems with premature wear. They are good 3 season tires. Any deep lug tire will not fair too well on hard slippery surfaces without studs.
For winter tracks with ice cleats are hard to beat
I've had these on my outlander 400 for 13 years and they are still about 70% treadQuote:
