I think the other guys gave you some direction to go on WHERE. I was just going to comment that I really like the ITP Terra Cross tires. There are some pics in my gallery of them on my new Kawi Brute Force 750. They are more aggressive tread than stock and plow thru mud great....but are not as aggressive as some other mud tires out there. These are 6 ply tires too, so supposed to be pretty tough. I think they are going to make a great all around trail/mud tire.

I went with High Lifter, but that may be farther away than Rocky Mountain. They have good customer service though.

And while we're on the subject of ATV tires, does anyone have any tire recommendations? I'm looking for a good mud tire, but nothing totally insane that is only good in the mud.

I'm keeping my stock tires on stock rims to swap back on when I don't want to tear up the ground, but I want something good and aggressive to run when we go riding and find ourselves in the mud. I'm getting a set of stock black rims to mount the tires on, so that will probably play into my sizing.

Cheapest I found was Rocky Mountain. Dennis Kirk claims they will beat anyones price. You could try. I usually purchase from Kirk.
Now, that said- I showed the dealer where I bought my Vinson Rocky Mountains' add for a complete 26" MudLite Kit on ITP C5's- they beat it by 40$.
Good Luck--

I put ITP Mudlite XTRs on my wifes Grizz. So far we love them. We have well over 1000 miles on them and you can barely tell they have been used. They are wearing like iron and get great traction on everything but loose gravel. She ran them in the black hills and Colorado this year and they grabed at everythnig we could throw at them. They are heavier than stock because of there 6 ply rating so they do rob a little power but not much.


They would have pulled her rite threw this gumbo mess had she not stopped to ask if she should continue on. I think had she tried she probobly could have drove it out of this but we wincher her out backwards to minimize trail damage.

If you want super-cheap, this place usually has blem/grindoff's at $37.50 each, with free shipping.

As far as a good mud tire that handles trail riding well, I also think the Mudlite XTR (radials) or slighty less agressive ITP Terra Cross would be my top choices.

E-bay has some good deals on either from time to time. I've heard of some folks getting excellent prices on the "buy it now or best offer" deals.

Hey Dodgecowboy, yeah, I'd like to get an ATV ride in sometime soon.

I'd assume McCubbin's Gulch, and Morrow County ATV park are both snowed in... I might try to hit Tillamook sometime in March...
