i was going to get sur traks but im having 2nd thoughts,thisis for a recon,i all ready have mudlites,but they wernt sproty,lol

sur tracks will wear on your axle bearings REAL QUICK . this is from expperience with them...great tire if you are in anything soft...they are unstoppable, but on hardpack, because of the spacing, they wear on bearings

you want to ride to differant tires if you do mud and still want to slide. most tires that are good in the mud dont slide well. if you want a good mud tire try Spider Tracks i run them on my 300 and i never get stuck (as long as your smart about your lines). the only tire i can think of that would be good for you if you ride mudd and want to slide, would be kenda klaws. they come in 6 ply so they will last, and they are a reversable tread pattern. put them on one way for hard pack and switch them for soft terrain. you just need to figure out what you want more, either not getting stuck or being able to slide.

lol,i wouldnt get one,it has given me all most NO powergains,all it has done is made it louder,but even tho it's louder just sounds like a stock recon,only 5x's lounder

im going to be getting either a big gun,or supertrapp,or FMF powerline,i heard all those are good,and give it a deeper,louder roar,but for a 25OEX i would get white bro's pipe or a HMF

well,i would LIKE to slide,but i would rather not get stuck,my friend has a recon with kenda dirt dog's

and he seems to get stuck.......alot with those,but he has had them on there for like 10 YEARS!!!with roadriding every DAY!!! and it still has tread!

but

out of these for hills,with SLIPPERY mud and roots and HUGE ruts i HAVE to stay out of
sur traks
all traks
razr's
klaws?

mud sharks look like they would slide good

Posted by: hillclimbingrec

no mud tires!!!!!!!!

i got a mud tire(mud lites) and they wear out WAY to fast,so no straight up mud tires!

Posted by: Xater

Posted by: hillclimbingrec
