Pros: Great ATV Tire
Cons:

I run these tires in 29.5 and love them...Not as aggresive as an Outlaw but not near as hard on your bike as an Outlaw...In my opinion great choice...but don't be fooled these bad boys will hang with the best of them in deep mud. - Matt

Pros: great in mud
Cons: get that skiping and catching affect of traction

These tires are tough. put these on and forget about any jaged rocks damaging your rims. they have good traction in mud, but are more stiff so they don't form around weird shaped objects as much as stock tires. I was running them at 5.5 psi, but tryed them at 2 psi, and they get a lot better traction at 2 psi because they aren't quite as stiff at that pressure. if you like the soft squishy terrain forming tires, stick with 2-4 ply. Also, order them 1 size smaller then you want. I ordered 26" and they actually measure 27" they are heavier than stock tires so they probably fit a machine with 500cc and up better unless you go with 25". Overall, I don't think you could do any better with any other 6 ply tires.
They do ad a lot of stability to my grizzly over the stock tires. it feels less likely to roll on side camber hills. it also widens the stance a little and gives you more ground clearence.

Pros: dig well, awesome traction, look very nice, smooth ride for being an aggresive tire.
Cons: none yet.

I've recently put 26"'s on my honda 500 foreman. It's still winter so I've only ridden in snow. I find they are awesome! Awesome traction, and they dig their way through almost the deepest snow. I can hardly believe it! But of course no tire can get you through too deep of snow, like 4 or 5 ft deep. Plus, they look awesome! I am looking forward to summer and all the mud and trails I can find in the mountains. I recommend a min of a 500cc with these tires. They grip and grab well. I noticed a couple comments about these tires not doing so well going over wet logs. From my experience, it's challenging for any tire to get over big wet logs.

Pros: Best all around tire i've used.
Cons: The review only shows 3 stars Reverse Bite.

The review only shows 3 stars Reverse Bite. That should be higher, These tires pull just as good if not better in Reverse. We turned the rear tires around and ran them in reverse with front axle unlocked and they pulled better. We now run the rears forward and the fronts backwards. these tires are unstoppable now.

Pros: good looking, dig in well.
Cons: maybe too much digging in traction

These tires are awesome. I can ride through anything!! The ride smooth for being so aggresive. My only concern is going around corners on terrain where the tires can grip in too much. I find that the tires really pull towards what ever they're digging into, thus, causing less control than you would like. But besides that, I love them.

For riding in arizona you get a little bit of everything... sand, mud, hill climbs, and rocks. And these tires have done great. They are so much better than the stock honda tires. It's like night and day. I only put them on the back for now but will get them on the front soon.

Pros: none
Cons: ball up an spin wildly

I got a grizzly 660 an i mud in texas, where theres real mud an these tires are a joke. If i go in the thick stuff they look like racing slicks. As for getting bite in slushier stuff its the same horror show. Swamp lites dont live up to their name at all. For a less aggressive mud tire go with mud lites all the way.

Pros: Wow what a tire
Cons:

This tire is incredible. My 1st ride on the tires was at a 4X4 off road park where very large rock crawlers go and many of them admit defeat. The trails are very very rocky and the rocks are quite sharp. I lowered the air pressure in the tires to about 2.5PSI and we were off. After 3 hours of very hard riding and lots of tire spinning I notice that it looked like the tires where coming off bead. I pointed it out to a buddy and he said they looked like that the whole day, right after I lowered the PSI from 10 where the tire store had them at to 2.5 PSI. We road back to camp and put air in the tires the backs had 0 PSI. The ride back was intense as the riding earlier. It took us 50 PSI and rubbing alcohol to get the tires on bead. We rode hard the rest of the day with 2.5 PSI they never came off bead. I don't think they where on bead from the shop. But any tire that can be rode off bead with 0 psi, in my book that is awesome. As far as grip this tire has tread to spare. On rocks the size of basket balls and trees about 14" around this tire was great. I can wait till hunting season to try it in the mud.

Pros: Great digger, goes anywhere, doesn't tear nearly as easy as others
Cons: DO NOT buy them if you dont have the power.....

Amazing, but if you go big you need to have the power I can totally see how the 1.25 lugs would slow down anything in the goooo. My griz 660 is bored 40 over and still could used some more go when i push it to the max but the tires dont fail me even when im sunk to the frame and rockn and tipn and prayn! Ive pulled the winch one in 200 plus hours of hard HARD riding. also not my favorite for the 65 mph turn on hard pack.... the slid super easy, had to re learn the bike BUY THEM!!!

Pros: tall lugs
Cons: need more side bite

I ride in the U.P. Michigan and have alot of different obsticles, Mud, hard pack, swamp, hill climbs, downed trees, name it.
these tires are very tough, except for the valve stem, it got ripped clean out of the tire.
I have atleast 1000 miles on the above mentioned tire/terrain and mostly hard pack. I also have a Polaris 500 Sportsman HEAVY. I weigh 220 pounds plus spare gas and gear. So their is alot of weight on the tires. They still have atleast 75% tread left. I don't know how the other tires wear so fast, maybe road riding.
At any rate I would reccomend this tire for a great all purpose tire and better than average in the mud.
OH AND BY THE WAY STAY AWAY FROM SAND!!! UNLESS YOU HAVE A BUDDY TO PULL YOU OUT.

I replaced my mud lite whith these tires....the mud lite are a much lighter tirebut go flat easy, the rubber even though 6ply is much thiner.

They are heavier but are wayyyyy more durable.....wicked traction in the snow....and i need that for anly being a 2wheel drive fourtrax...with these tires i'm able to keep up to my buddies in the snow with thier 4x4 sportsmans.!

Pros: great all-terrain tire
Cons: wont self-clean in thick mud and dig in sand

Great all around tire. Dont use these tires in sand, they have aggressive lugs and will dig yourself a hole in a hurry. If you bog in thick peanut butter mud, these tires will not self-clean and you will have slicks th rest of the ride. If you are looking for a tire that can get you out of a trail, these are for you..

Pros: lots of grip- look intimidating
Cons: heavy

I've had these for about a year, with not a ton of riding, but I must say they are really solid tires. I have a buddy with mud lites and one with outlaws, and mine are just as good as theirs. The only time I do worse, is when I belly out- which no tire can save you then. I'd probably go with a lighter tire next time, but they really have a crap load of bite when you run low pressure. I actually ran them flat one winter ride, and it did better than most. You won't regret buying them, but you do need a bigger ride or a 2 wheel drive to be able to turn them.

I've had many tires including trying the swamplites twice! I've sold them both times after a few months! Tried the 27" Mud Lites & found they cked too. Maybe ok for the price but the tire I lways go back to is the Kenda Executioners! Now thats a tire! If you try them...you'll never go back!

I wouldn't put these on my bike again if they were free! I too had problems going straight with these on. I checked the pressure, tie rod ends were adjusted & didn't help. AQs soon as I got rid of them & put on a different tire everything was fine. What a piece of crap! Much better tires out there for the same $.

Pros: Very good all around and inspire confidence
Cons: High speed

I installed a set of the 26x10x12 front and 26x12x12 rear on my 2004 Artic Cat 650v-twin and I just love them. I was afraid of going with a wider tire in the front then the stock tires because I was sure it would make my atv that much harder to steer, but it made the steering effort much easier and that is why at high speeds I have to be carefull but it has also eliminated body roll in high speed cornering.I ride in all other types of conditions such as mud, swamp, sand, rocks, and they have been fantastic and beleive me I do see all types of conditions being in Northern Ontario. The only type of terrain where I have to be careful is on hard pack with thick gravel. They tend to be slippery even with 4.5 psi in the tires. I can go places I could not with my stock tires and many of my buddies with ITP mudlites can not follow me, maybe because its an Artic Cat and not because of the tire Ha! Ha!. I have 2000 miles on them and they are still like new so I do not see where they wear fast. One big problem is they tear the heck out of my lawn when I use my atv for work around the house. Otherwise, I will probably put them on my next atv depending on what I buy.

These will work great for the trail rider that does not spend his whole time in the mud.They are ok in mud.They suck in sand no doubt about it.Also keep off the black top as they wear like tennie shoes on hot blacktop.

Cons: Don't have anything bad to say about them

I've got the 29.5's on my Polaris Sportsman 500 h.o. They're a great all around tire. They've clawed through everything I've put them in so far.

Pros:
Cons:

The tires have a great look and as well perform great in muddy terrain the only draw back would have to be the weight but i purchased them because they are six ply and can take unforgiveing stream rocks and have punctured a mudlite tire before. I haven't tried them in snow so cant comment on but i would have to say hardpac streams and knee deep mud they effortlessly meander through with no trouble. Gave a 9 because I think a lighter tire could be achieved with the same strenght. A great all around tire and am anciously awaiting the snow season to try them out for hunting. Will purchase a set for my wifes quad. (27x12x12 all around)

Pros: Looks tough, great traction
Cons: Heavy

I did not get the tire I wanted. The description that I looked at never said anything about different tread depth for different size tires. Poor research on my part. But I hope that I can help somebody else out that may have the same problem. I feel stupid for not finding this out till after I got the tire. If I would have known wouldve got a 26" instead of the 25". Other than that I love the tire. I needed to air down after I got them mounted though. They are much stiffer than stock.

Pros: Cheap
Cons: Handling, mud traction

They don't do anything well. On the trail they wobble and corner like you are riding on marshmallows. They throw stones worse than any other tire so you have to ride alone or at the back. In gumbo mud they pack solid and won't clean. At least they don't pop like mudlites.

Pros: awesome tire in snow
Cons: soft compound

They are very good tires although they have a soft compound which can easily get cut on their lugs. Which by the way their tread is huge. Very good tire all around. Also I can get through alot more in the snow big improvment from my other ones.

Pros: Price, Aggressive
Cons:

For the price these are the best tires I've ever owned. In the past I've owned Mudlite's, Outlaw's, 589's and a few others. These are by far the lowest priced set of tires ($465) for a set of 26x10-12 and 26x12-12. I also have a set in the 29.5x10-12 on my RZR and there majorly awesome. Highly recommend these tires.

Pros: slush, snow, mud
Cons: wear

I love these tires, have them on my kfx400 (22X11X10) so there is a fair bit of wheel speed at times. they preform great, and are not overly heavy, and once you hit a soft spot on the trail it feels like it accelerates! (b/c on solid trail they are almost always spinning with my riding style)
but when i took them off after the winter i was shocked at the wear, but then i do ride on the road 10km/ week to get to work and back.
love this tire for mud though , better then the mudlite (i've had both)

Pros: Rigid side walls, deep treads, aggressive stance/look
Cons: weight

I have Brute Force 750i, and went with the 27x9x12's in the front and 27x12x12's in the rear with no suspension mods required. Great stiffness in the side walls so I don't get the "flop" of a softer tire when turning or cornering aggressively. Super deep tread lugs grab everyting in its path. As a result, they do throw rocks and debris, as should be expected with this type of tire. They are a little on on the heavy side, again as should be expected with a 6 ply tire, but the trade off is way more puncture resistance that a 3 or 4 ply tire. Great on hard-pack and in the mud, without the vibration. Haven't done any rock climbing yet though. Overall, a great all around tire well worth the cost (for me anyway).

Love them. Just put them on my 800 sportsman and they are the bomb. Just as good in the mud as they are in the snow. Stop wasting you time reading and just go and buy a set.

Pros: Mean looking, do not leak air, traction is superior, throws rocks big time!
Cons: none

I used to run mudlites thinking they were great tires until I rolled with swamp lites! British Columbia Mud, snow, sand, hail, sleet, bogs cannot stop this tire easily. I can go hunting deep in the bush without a concern!

Pros: hopefully alot of things cuz i feel pretty sold on them
Cons: it seems that alot of people think they will b bad for anything under a 500cc? i hav a 2007 suzuki ltz 400

i want something real chunky but that can also ride hard terrain cuz i ride alot of slag piles with loose, rocky, slippery, and easily slid out mud but i also ride rock hard trails the other half of the time. im baisically just scared because some people say not to use under 500cc and that it ripped out stuff in there wheel and things like that. i cant figure out what size i need exactly beyond 21"(such as the last 2 numbers)im 15 so somebody please help me out cuz im frustrated from searching for tires for 4 months. WILL THIS BE GOOD FOR MY STOCK 400CC SPORT BIKE?

I had these on my 06 Arctic Cat 650, now a new set on my 2011 Arctic Cat 700H1, still my favorite tire. A tad heavy, but 6ply strength. Plowing is a breeze with these. Trail riding is great, they will take you anywhere.

Ive run these on my scrambler 400 4x4, 2000 kodiak 400, now i have them on my brute force 750i and my uncle has em on his grizzly 700 both in 27"sizes. Awsome tire for the price better than any ITP out there, Proper air pressure is a must to ensure both longetivity and function. obviously putting anything bigger than a 25" on a smaller bike is ridiculas so I laugh at the people who give bad reviews after putting 27s on there 350. hahaha

Pros: great mud tire
Cons: a little heavy

i run this tires on my 2006 rancher 350 2wd.its stock no mods.i have used both the 25"x10x12 and 26"x12x12 rear tires on my atv. the performance is the same in mud and water.. also if you can't deside on 25 or 26s i highly recommend you buying the 26s.the lugs are deeper.i'm useing the 26x9x12 front tires and 26x12x12 rear tires. most of the time i'm running 2nd gear or 3rd gear for light mud with some water (under 20" deep) to clean the mud out of the treads.now if i'm riding in deep mud and water almost 26" to 30" deep my atv don't have the power to turn the tires in 2nd gear so i'm constantly changing from first gear to 2nd gear when i can then back to first gear when needed. lots of fun but worth it.good throttle response is needed with these tires.i wouldn't recommend tires bigger then 26" on a honda rancher 350.
these tires last a long time and when i need to buy a new set i will buy swamplites again.
