I would pretty much agree with this, I have noticed they get pretty squirrely on hard pack clay that is just a bit greasy on the surface. As long as the lugs can sink in tho, they chew.

The negatives - they are a heavy tire, somewhat rough on hard pack, and aas I stated above, they do slip around on wet, hard packed clay. And the huge gobs of mud all over you, the quad, trees, any buddies you may have with you, etc....LOL

Positives - When the big-ass lugs can sink even a little into the surface, they chew like mad. Seem like they wear very well, and I think the tire should be fairly puncture proof. And as I've found in the last while, they do pretty good in the snow also, at least for plowing the yard so far. Also, thinking the added weight may help me out, might not let my quad go tires up in the deep water quite so easily.....

Give Rej a call at SuperGrip, sponsor on here, great guy to deal with also. From what you are describing as your riding type, you may want to talk to him about a set of the Superlite's, a Mudlite style tire, less aggressive and more "trail" oriented.

Bought some of Rej ,great guy ,great deal ! Have not had them in mud yet ,however i hear they are pretty good . We will soon see, i like the rim guard and the compound is as tough as they come. Hell i don`t think u need air in them , lol .On the flip side they are a little slick on ice ,hardpack snow etc. It is pretty tough to get one tire to be the best in all situations imo......

Forgot to mention, they tend to measure true, or even slightly larger. Most tires I've had measure out at least 1" shorter than stated, these are about 1/2" bigger.

Rzrgade, you'll like em in the mud....

RZRgade, How would you compare these to the zillas? I was thinking of running my zillas this year and then having them as snow tires and getting new mudders for the summer 2010 but I may buy them sooner if they make that much of a difference.. I know they will be much heavier but with the 800 it shouldn't be a problem to turn them. I also spend a bit of time west of Sundre and there are alot of trail with hardpack climbs and descents. How would these tires fair on that type of terrain?
Thanks

To be honest i have not ran them on my RZR, however i think they would work well.I really like my Zilla`s huge fan; if your going to do more mudding than trail i would go MB. The Fact that Zilla`s don`t rob any power is nice.If you ride a lot of mud WITH a bottom the MB~S will work great,in muskeg on a s/s they might just digg you down.Both are excelent tires and it always comes down to where you ride!

knock off of the mud zilla... they seem okay in the mud and skeg from what iv found, Just was not overly impressed wih them, myself but then again you cant really compare any tire to the outlaw in the mud.... I will say they are a better trail tire then the outlaw though.
