stevebeilgard Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 congrats on the new rubber. it doesn't matter just why the dealer was so low. what matters is that both he and you are happy with the sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun_300 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Wow, that sounds like a great deal! I'd jump on that one. On my Outlander I have ITP Mudlite's 26x10x12 on the back and 26x8x12 on the rear. I got them when I bought the bike brand new, they gave me credit for the stock wheels and tires and I still had to pay quite a bit of money extra for them. This is my bike, after my first 20 feet of driving it, off the truck and up to the door at Gran's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PA_Spike_King Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Shaun, how do you like those tires (in the snow).. My 2X4 needs new ones soon and am thinking of just those tires? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wobbly_Alaska Posted March 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Shaun, how do you like those tires (in the snow).. My 2X4 needs new ones soon and am thinking of just those tires? i have them on three bikes already and they do great in the snow up here... my Honda 500 does all the plowing and never has used chains. my Suzi 500 Vinson... has them, i use it for moose hunting and unless you've seen our mud/slop/tundra after the ice goes out of a trail it is hard to explain.... but bottomless with no substance is the easiest way... and they perform perfectly in it... and can scoot across with out making to big a dent damage wise to a bad trail if used correctly...

How is this for snow? It crawled out of that mess by itself, flipped the 4x4 on and pinned her, she came out of there like a champ with a hurricane of snow behind her. :yes: And it loves snow for breakfast. :yes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PA_Spike_King Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 COOL, yeah if we get that much snow around here I will just get my sleds out. LOL Now remember my 4 wheeler is only 2wd so I don't want to get it stuck to bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun_300 Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 My buddy has a 2x4 Arctic Cat 250, think it's a 2007 model. He had one heck of a time last year in the snow, especially going out to our shack with the ice under the snow on the river. He got a set of tire chains for the rear this Christmas and man what a difference! You can stop on glare ice and pin it and it just goes. He'll beat me out of the hole and I have a 4x4 Outlander. Mind you I just spin all 4 wheels like crazy until I get traction, then I'm off like a rocket. :whip: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PA_Spike_King Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 I have had a set of chains BUT they just don't like to stay on. (To much goofing around) so this tire option is the next best thing. Thanks Shaun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun_300 Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Chains with good tires and no goofing around is the best way to not get stuck. It had a warning on the chains not to drive over 30km/h which is 19mph. Definitely wouldn't want one of those coming off and whipping you in the noggen.

Wobbly_Alaska Posted March 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 rather then chains i have seen guys use the carbide tipped ice screws with great results they just screw into your lugs with a 1/4" driver bit... and hold up well... and remove later.

PA_Spike_King Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 What turned me off was just because of that (coming off), and I thought it was going to rip my rear fender off, so that was the end of my tire chain's on an atv. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
