What tires would roll the best in flooded rice fields? Is there a difference in atv tires and utv tires?

Theres no difference as far as I know I bought some for the farm utv a while back and just made sure to get 6 ply tires so they would be heavy duty

Mamba's and Vampires are more than I need. Just checking to see if anyone has any new ideas.

I have 30" mud lites on my ranger, i love the clearance but thinking i will need more tread in a flooded field. I will say that it haa plenty of power to turn the 30's though. Wouldnt mind some 29.5's outlaws just for the "good" stuff

I used to run vampires all over that farm but was careful where I rode on the roads. He probably don't care how much you rut the field, he will plow before planting anyway. We always used same ruts in and out though

Vampires are hard to stop. I talked to Wade yesterday and i am going to give the swamp lights a try.

It does have a pretty hard bottom in the field. Its like walking on concrete in the flooded parts.

I had swamplites on a arctic cat prowler and they do really good. They aren't stiff as the vampires, the ride is alot smoother.

I posted about this a few weeks ago. I just ordered some Silverback X lites and rims for my new 420 rancher....front 26-9-12 and rear 26-11-12 from a place in CALI for 700 bucks. The Silverback X lites are really for pure mud / water use (rice field hunting) in which during hunting season that is what my bike will be in 80-90% of the time.
My uncle has some vampires on his 500 foreman and they pull in the mud way better than the mud lite ones he had at first on his bike....both were the same exact size and the vampires blew the mud lites away.

Very, very heavy tires.....
Outlaw radials much smoother than regular outlaws and still pull great

I went with swamp lites by interco. No problems first split in mud or flooded fields.

My buddy runs Swamp Lites on his Rhino and seems really happy
Best thing to do if you get a polaris ranger is the forward a arms in the front we have done a lot of rangers at the shop and it makes a big difference in performance and it looks awesome

How much will that add to the length of the ranger? I have about 6 inches to spare on my trailer.

I have ran both Vampires and Mud-Lites, and the only difference I've noticed is the Mud-Lites have a smoother ride on hard surfaces.
