Ya vamps are pretty bad ass. Especially the EDL version.
The fact i sell tires for a living makes me think i do know what i am talking about

Makes me think I wouldn't buy tires from you when the majority of the general population of an atv site strongly disagree with you

I would trust the word of a large group of people who have used the product before over a salesman any day. Especially a pushy one, if you know what I'm sayin.

would be interested in seeing different tires on the same machine, then there would be some comparison, seems like your trying to compare apples to oranges, with 26 inch tires to 30's. usually see guys replace 26 inch tires with larger 27/28 inch tires and usually more aggressive to. then all they do is rave about how good the new tires are, daaa, wtf. anyone find a u- tube proper tire comparison.

How about the opinion of someone who has owned and ran 27" and 28" Mudbugs, 26" and 27" Bearclaws, 27" Mudlites, 27", 28", and 30" Zillas, 28" and 29.5" Outlaws, and 30" Silverbacks.....?

the biggest prolem i have dave, is not your opinion, it is good, reason i tried the zillas. but to satisfy everyone, a tire comparison on the same machine with the same size tires would lead to tangeable results. i like the zillas also liked the mud lite xtrs. just not the same size, so i really couldn't gauge the difference. brother in law gets around good on mudugs, i had same size xtr's and got around good, i have zillas in a different size so really can't compare, yes i get around fairly well, although a tough time following 30 in tires, so as i say a comparrison on similar size tires on the same machine will tell the story.
have followed canams with the swamplites, not really impressed, not really impressed with tex's mudlights, although they are 30's and make trenches in the trail bottom, again your opinion is your opinion just as rzzrgade or texs, or doorfx, fish or mine. i really don't think there is a perfect all round tire, just looking for confirmation of opinions, no intention of slagging your opinion or anyone elses. just looking for tangeable results.

Changing tires helps ,but there is A LOT more to it than that.....haha. Going from a 26 this to a 27 that.........whatever. I love when two different riders on two different bike with two different size tires try two different holes and one makes it and the other does not.....
Gotta be the tires...........LMFAO.

neville that is what i say, compare different tires on same atv, same rider same loop, that would be a true tire test, not 26 in tires to 30's, i value your opinion, as well as daves, but as you say rarly are two riders or two quads the same. not sure why dave feels harrased, just asking.

Another tire thread,much more interesting though,simply because of the attitude of this young Fish fellow...............

for sure, he sees the mud videos, with guys on the high power, big tire quads and thinks thats the cats azz, sure it is impressive, maybe if he had to pay a few of the bills these guys have after a weekend of fun he may think differently, we have ridden together, and have all been towed, pulled and pushed, well me more than others, but still, tire choice is personal and like opinions, based on your experience or what impressed you. i really don't want to break the quad, so i don't hammer on it, same as the lad on the yamaha in the mud hole, he spent $4000 on axles in one hole, could have been winched at a much less cost.

I also bought my mud lights used 3 years ago for 250.00.
Never had a bead come off like some zillas have.
I still like zillas better but the mud lights are good enough for now.
