What is a good "all round" PSI for my tires? Will be doing all sorts of different riding, trail, mud, rock etc.

26" Mudlite XL's
9-12 Front
10-12 Back

Thanks

Seeley

do you have any pictures of your quad foreman im looking to get the same size tires on mine but would like to see how thay would look first,please get back to me thanks Craig[/quote]

Yeah, yeah! Can I see a pic too? I'm thinking of getting the same tires for my '02 450s.

I usually run my tires way overinflated. Gives a little more clearance and top speed. Plus I've seen too many tires come off the rims in the middle of the bush...
Thanks

You will lose alot of your puncture resistance if you go too high. You want the stob or sharp rock to be able to push in on the tire a little bit. If the tire does not give any, it is more likely to get stabbed or tear.

Absolutely correct. My bro's running 25" mudlights on the back of his 2wd quad and we had less than 2 hrs riding time when he punctured a hole 1/2" around. This was definitly due to over-inflation.
It's a trade off - the trails in my area are rutted real bad - you need the clearance in certain situations, as well as the extra top-speed for some road riding. But, for regular mud & trail riding, a nice soft tire will give you a more comfortable ride and more peace-of-mind, i.e punctures.
