Default Tires

I got a buddy that needs some new tires on his ATV. He's got a 500 Honda 4x4 and keeps getting stuck on his bike with the stock tires. What is a good mud tire that won't break the bank?

I have Swamp Lites and have been very pleased. I had me, Merc, 200lbs corn and a sprayer on my Rancher and went threw some nasty stuff with no problems.

In my opinion, you can't go wrong with a swamp witches or an ITP 589. Two best tires I have had experience with in my opinion.

They had someone selling some a few weeks back in the classifieds. Seems like he wanted around 50 bucks a tire. Had some nice tread on them.

The only time I've had trouble with the swamp witches on my 500 was if I'd get high centered.

We use to ride a lot and I thinks our itp 589 is by far the best all around tire on the market.i promise the will outlast a mudlite. If you rode on any roades the mudlite will not hold up. If you want a strictly mud tire outlaw or silverback is the way to go.
