| I ran the Duro Power Grip's for some time......They are fairly cheap, and have great traction and lugs. | |

| you cant beat bighorns for there traction but they require extra plugs and to me they push alittle in hard turns.
I like ITP Baja Cross but not good on slippery stuff and heavy
I'm going to try the grim reapers out next | |

| I have a set of 27" grim reapers. 3 patches 4 plugs less than 200 miles on them. Great traction but rocks cut them easy! | |

| the set of Big horns I have on my 850XP is the 1st and last set of Horns I will ever own...sorriest excuse for an off road tire I have ever owned...Like CMF said, you better have some tire plugs!
I am currently looking for a 27" 8 ply in 12" to put on the RZR after I get done rebuilding it. I would love to put a set of Grim Reapers on but can't find them in a 27" in a 12" wheel. | |

| Go to our sponsor ATV Outfitters try out a set of Pit Bulls either growler or rockers,8ply aggressive tread. tried and true rubber compound. Ask for Matthew, first rate customer service! I just bought a set of the Rocker uber XOR radials in 26.5x11R-12 for the Teryx. I havent mounted them yet ,but they measure about 27" tall sitting in the garage. I'll measure them after mounting and post up the actual inflated dimensions. | |
