Ok...so now you've been stuck afterall. Thinking before you type can avoid the responses you've been getting.....just sayin'. Let it be known that the contents of most posts on here are dissected and taken quite literally, so vague statements and inaccuracies will go under the microscope on a regular basis. Just tryin' to help out.

I have been fortunate to have the opportunity to test and ride on a lot of different tires by various manufacturers; all of which were mentioned in the previous posts. Bottom line, not every tire is going to suit every riding situation. You need to determine what is the majority of the terrain you are going to be riding on. If its going to be strictly mud, then the Highlifter Outlaw is going to be hard to beat, however, the Outlaw tire rides rough on the regular trail. For all around trail riding, I prefer the Maxxis Bighorns. They grip excellent on rocks, over logs and even hold their own in the mud. The down side is they tend to want to power slide a little too much in when the trail gets wet or on loose aggregate. They wear like iron too.

All of the ITP Mud Lite series are very good all around tires. My favorite being the XTR. Downside to the Mud Lite series is they tend to have a weaker rubber compound as well as sidewall. We have managed to puncture every ITP ever tested.

No matter what you decide on, do your research, read the reviews and then decide on what will be best for you. Any choice will be better than the stock option.

I just picked up a Yamaha 600 Grizzly with new 27 x 12 x 12 Blackwater XT's and rims how do these rank if anybody can tell me. They look like some good mudders to me.

it runs pretty warm compared to my other atv's but from what I read and hear they all (Grizzlies) run hot.
