Mud Lite XTR? Big Troubles?

[jurban]

I have been reading on other side about some many people have big issue with them losing air? I just bought a pair of these tires and now I'm all freaked out.... So whats all of your guys experense with these tires? Did I make a good call in buying XTR or should I have bought different tires.

Thanks

Welcome to the site!!! I have 3500 kms on a set of 26" xtr's with no issues at all. These tires have been studded like 3 times too. Time for a new set now though.

I bought a 800 sporty took off stock tires after (you are no going to believe this ) 18 flats I put on a set of 27 xtr and put tubes in them problem fixed It was not a tire issue the problem was getting crap between the bead and the rim i went to 3 different tire shops tried different glues so i tubed them for about 20 buck apiece i have come out of the bush with small rocks muskeg between the bead and rim no flats it painful fixing tires when we should be riding

I had a set of 27" on my old quad with very little problems, most of them were small leaks a long the beads from crap getting in there. Over all I would recommend them.

i was having issues with mine slowly leaking air, turns out their was too much mud in the bead or somethin anyway the guy cleaned my rims and the tires have been good ever since.

Not many problems with the XTR's, but after time the regular mud lites and swamp lites will start leaking around the lugs, especially on the the heavier more powerfull machines.

I have about 350 miles on mine, havent had to add air even once IMO they are good solid tire, No flats either. I have had good luck going thru mud too they really dig! Don't worry they are a great tire, everyone has their opinions on this, alot of it comes down to the driver, alot of people like Zilla's too, I wanted a radial and don't regret buying these at all! I am running about 5 psi on a 850 XP polaris

are you sure they were talking about the xtr's, not the standard mud lights. have heard that the standard mud lights flex a lot and develop pin holes around the lugs. i run the xtr's and have had no problems and find them a great all round tire.
