I know this is kinda an old post, but here are some images of the Pit Bulls.
These are some awesome tires, They hook up like nothing I have ever owned before.
Also, here is a video. There is one section where a RZR with Bighorns struggles to clear a bank. The RZR with the Pit Bulls pull over the bank effortlessly. The Bighorn RZR actually had a little more clearance too.

The word is out on the 26.5 size, a guy at pittbull said no tires till mid-late feb. or later said they were not happy with the first ones out of the mold so its causing delays in production. I will be keeping my XTR's maybe later after they get things straightened out and i see some close up and how they hold up i will try some. I still think the tread on the xtrs will work better for what we do, i mostly just wanted the rim guard.

I am waiting to put a set of Rockers on my RZR also. I have a set of 25.5 Growlers on my Renegade and I love them! I had always been a die hard Bighorn guy till I put these on. A few weeks ago we rode in the snow at Windrock. We were going to the north side so we had to ride on the gravel rode from trail 2 to Hwy 116. I was outrunning the guys with the Bighorns really bad. I would stop to wait on them and same thing again. The Bighorns just would take the curves anywhere close to the same speed as the Growlers. They are also wearing very well to be so soft of a tread compound.

Well the XTR's are some great tires. My only compliant with them were the weak / soft sidewalls. I popped 3 holes in the first 40 miles on the Rockhouse trail. After that I immediately switched to the Bighorn.
I had heard the same as you with regards to the 26.5's.

How many miles on your Growler? I have 700 on mine and they are showing little signs of wear.

xtrs are like any of the others without a rim guard, if you run them under 10lbs of air you can pinch the sidewall, bighorns do it to. If you run them at 11 or12 then you wont have a problem.

Well, my issues weren't with pinching the sidewall. They were straight out punctures. The Bighorns have never let me down on the same trails with the same riding style.
Keep in mind, this was with a Grizzly and not a RZR.
