I bought Mud Bugs as a snow tire, not a mud tire. Work great for work in the snow.

![]() The two best snow tires that I have had were Carlisle ACT HDs and these Grim Reapers. I have been quite impressed with GRs in the snow so far. Both of these tires will out perform BHs in the snow but I'm sure the Grim Reapers will by far outlast the ACT HDs. Almost any tire will out perform OE tires. Congrat on your new tires, I'm sure you'll be happy with your BHs; lots of folks are. I've posted this video before. I'm sitting at the top on my Rubicon after cutting the trail with ACT HDs. My friends have more HP and locking front diffs and they had a more difficult time than I did making it to the top. The difference?? Tires. They all had brand new BHs. When my friend got towards the top where it got steep and he had to climb over the log it was all over for him. I had to shut off my camera and go move the log off the trail because he just couldn't get over it or around it.

I always loved Mud Bugs in the snow. Great for your needs.
With that said I've never experience anything like riding in deep snow on 29.5's, with 71hp at your control. Words can't describe that, it's just INSANE.

Like my Bugs in the snow too. I have to settle for 25s with 23-24hp at my control though

On another note, I dont think it was the BHs fault in that video.... It may have been the 12psi of air he was running! Those tores up front looked round as can be! I run mine at about 3 psi and that helps out alot. |
