I like outlaw mst. Not much heavier than zillas but tougher. They are every bit as good in the mud, they have excellent trail manners and ride like a radial. They also last really well.

I'm gonna vote for zillas. Everyone I've seen that has them loves them. Granted that I'll probably never get them myself as I go for a straight mud tire, I don't think there is any other tires that overwhelmingly beat zillas as an all around tire. I'm sure the outlaw MSTs work just as well, but I don't think it would be worlds ahead or behind. Zillas seem to be tried, tested and true for an all around tire. Plus they look better than a mud light for sure!

Don't be an idiot, Fish. A Mudbug is in the same class as a Zilla...except that as well as being only marginal in mud, a Mudbug SUCKS on the trail. If the guy asked about swimming through bogs all day, everyone's recommendations would be different. (well, except yours...you'd probably still be suggesting that Mudbugs are in the same class as an Outlaw)

Fish--- did a 'zilla touch you in an inappropriate place after you clearly said "no"?

I heard Willy is voting for 'zilla in the upcoming BC election...

Them damn 'zillas didn't even call me the next day...

'Zillas were also seen near the finish line at the Boston Marathon sporting a backpack and sunglasses.


Just say "no" to 'zillas. Lmao!

Mst has been around longer than a zilla and they are tried and tested. I've had all three and I didn't like the zillas in the rocks. Mudlites handled terrible and I got stuck all the time lol

This is what you will be dealing with if you get zillas.

The right choice is a Outlaw or a MudBug

Zillas vs OL2's, silverbacks and original outlaws, of course the zilla will look pathetic. Not even the same class of tire. Mud bugs, perhaps they were a good tire 15 years ago when they came out. Be like telling everyone to go find a set of Dick Cepek Spider Tracs and run them cause they're the best.

Funny how you guys Cant handle the truth first of all SK and Alberta trails are very simular both have bottomless swamps and skeg
and very little mud. second of all 30"zillas should be able to handle there own against 29.5 outlaw 2s well at least not look realy pathetic. 3rd of all zillas 1 time did grab me by the left nut in a mud hole so yes they did touch me inappropriate and MudBugs are like a baby outlaw almost exact tread pattern. And last of all i would stop whining if you did not advise Zillas for Alberta total GARBAGE. even stock would be zillas in Alberta it is just the sad truth.

A better question is what machine your riding zillas are light and dont rob power .
Silver backs r better but u need more power to do the same job
I like zillas i keep my wheelie power and can keep up with most

Had 30inch mud lites on our rhino and they worked pretty good for the trails we do.

A friend has 29.5inch interco vampires on his 900rzr,,now those are an agressive tire!
