New tires and rims!!!!
.............ordered! lol.. Ordered today will have on wednesday. Im excited so I had to post it somewheres! lol
Went back to 26" bighorns. I ran them on my 750 and as far as im concern they are the best ATV tires ever made IMHO!
So far since ive bought my brute in November Ive had GBC dirt tamers,,Maxxis mudbugs and now going to Bighorns. I go through tires like socks! lol
As far as wheels I went with "Maxxis 4x4".
Will post pics when I get them on.

What kind of riding do you do? I am still at a stand still on pulling the trigger on a set of rims and tires.
My buddy just bought 26" terras on 14" rims. He likes them so far, but has no miles on them yet. he has a couple issues in my opinion, he go 5/2 rims and 8" fronts and they are not the xd version. Other than that they are nice tires. $550+tax on ss108 rims.
They were on my short list, but now I can't get them because he does. So now its grim reapers or bighorns...
Oh the dilema...

I think someone should get a set of reapers and realy test them out. I hear pretty good things about them, but not too many have that many miles yet. I was thinking about them too but went in a different direction. Good reviews though

I ride in just about everything except deep sticky mud! I do spend a lot of time in wooded/slippery leafy trails. Where I live there is a abandoned railway system (500km worth) that has been transformed into ATV trails. All hardpack. I also do 75% of my riding in the winter. I need a tire thats good in the snow!

Trever,
They look great. I agree that black would look very good on your quad, but there is nothing wrong with the set up you have. They look really good.

Thanks guys!
I will most likely be keeping the old set. Only cause im not sure how the bighorns are going to work in the snow. The mudbugs were awesome in the snow! We will see. Snow might be over for us this year. Its been very mild lately. Might have to wait til next year to find out!
They are definately bigger then the mudbugs!
