mud tires

[donaubin]

Got an 05 660 Rhino. My front 27"x 8" x 12's mud bugs are still good but my rear 27"x10x12"s are Shot. Wanna put something more aggressive on the rear, like a 27x12x12 but a really good mudder. Anyone have experience with aggressive tires like mudzillas or Outlaws? I looked at Executioners today but doesent seem like a very aggresive tread?? Just wondering if there's such a thing as too aggressive or should I stick to Swamp lies, etc???

I've got 27 9 12 front and 27 11 12 rear Zilla's(NOT Mudzilla's) I like them a lot. IMO I would go to a 9-10 front and 12 rear,

I saw the zillas but thought they may be too tame for mud? Lots of people seem to like the Zilla's as an overall tire, but like I said, we go slowww in cutlines, then try and cross whatever we run into. Wanna make sure my rear tires got some bite.

Then I suggest something fairly easy to obtain like Mudzilla's or Mud Bitch's,.. but IMO you should carry a couple extra axle with you.

That's what worries me, too aggressive. I'll have to look at the Zillas again. Any experience with Swamp lites, they seem pretty popular too. Appreciate your feedback

I found on my buddies quad they rather tore through, rather than paddled like my Zilla's or the crappy Mudlites I used to have.

There are some on here than run them, but I am not a fan. Why not get some 27 12 12 bugs for the rear, I have them on a brother rhino to my own and they go great, 10's front 12's rear.

i have 27" swamplites on my rhino, with 14" rims, the sidewalls are a little light if you ride rocky terrain quickly they work well in the snow and in the swamps, they have not let me down yet and they are cheap. i have 1500kms on them and they are about 2/3 tread left on the rears fronts still have lots.my next set of tires is going to be a set of pitbull rockes i think. if you are in sticky mud i might look else where. they get me anywhere i need to go and can spin them pretty easy.

just thinking a bit more i would NOT mix and match tires, as i would pretty much guaranty that they will be a different size even if the numbers are the same, just asking for a major failure.

26" outlaws all the way around and no problems. Crawl through more then I could with the mudlights.
