What size mudlites are you guys running

27X9X14 for Front & 27X11X14 for rear? or

27X10X14 Front? 27X11X14

 

[selah86]

most people either do the 12" or 14" rim, 27" tall, 10" wide in front, 12" wide in back.

so, 27x12x10/12 or 27x14x10/12

Tires

ITP Mud Lite XTR 27x11x14 Rear

ITP Mud Lite XTR 27x9x14 Front for snow. I think a thinner tire in front will go through snow a little better right????

Will these work OK? They should fit on 14 x 6 ITP rim right?

 

[selah86]

if you are wanting to cut through the snow then yes those will work
if you are wanting to stay intop of the snow then the wider the tire the better b/c you will have a bigger footprint and disperse the weight of your quad over a larger surface area.

one inch really isnt going to make that much of a differnce tho.
either way you will be able to fit them with no problem.

Thanks

Thanks for the info I was on ITP's website and they have a few to choose from. I like the XL's and the XTR's can't decide.

i have the 26s xls and love them. my dad had 27 xtrs and they are smooth and go any were a xl will go..

 

[Guest]

Thanks

I think I'll go with the XL's they are cheaper also.

 

[mudmaster]

Check on Ebay, I just picked up 4 27" XTR's for $26 more total than XL's. For that price go with the radials, they ride a lot smoother.

playing around up the feild sunday, notcied there was some "thick" mud around so i put my mud lites to the test backing up. It didnt turn good. they are fine going front wards.

i dont think that would happen with any other tire.
BTW they were 26x12x12 in the rear,

 

[fkoney_99]

27-12-12XL in the rear thay work good for the riding I do thow next time it will be 589s

Mudlites

I have the Mudlite XLs and they have been doing real good. Mine are self-cleaning I haven't ever had them pack full of mud

 

[Guest]

[darren783]

So far I love my 26" XL's. No problems with caked on mud.

i guess they've never been in the thick stuff then.

 

[rubyandforeman]

mudlites only clean out if your not in mud like the pic.

 

[selah86]

i have outlaw MSTs and i have never had a complaint about them... i love them on dirt, water, or hard pack.

 

[500Foreman05]

I for 26x9x12 fron 26x12x12 rear.

Not a bad tire for trails/light mud. They will cake up and not clean out in thick mud and possibly leave you stuck.
Ride smooth on hard pack and dont seem to wabble a bit.

I WANT Outlaw MST's!!!
Might switch someday soon. I think the MST's would be better in all aspects. But ive heard a few reports about them being really shakey or wabble at high speeds so im hanging tight for right this minute.. cause these lites dont wabble at all that I can fill.

 

[cra5h]
