Just figured I'd post this to see what kind of genereal riding everyone does. I have 28" Radial Outlaws, and I'm loving them. I have a total of over 1300 miles on Radial Laws, and they have not let me down at all. The grip suprising well on rock and hardpack, but do not dissapoint in the mud. I like to call them a 'Premier' or 'Extreme' all terrain tire. To me, it's in a class with very slim competition as far as overall performance.

Lets hear yall's stories!!

Lets see scratch

Mud lites were way way to soft
Mud Lite XTR's were a little better but still a little on the soft side
stock maxxas were again to soft
Terracross's were good tires on hard pack and rock but still had a thin side wall
GBC's Grim Reapers were awesome tough as nails and went well in all terrains
Motogrips were excellent on hard pack but took a lot of wheel spin to get traction when it got wet.
Mud Boss's got excellent traction but again a 6 ply tire so a little soft for a sidexside
Dirt Commanders like the grim reapers were 8 ply and tough as nails but more geared to hard pack and light loss stuff
Blackwater evolution another 8 ply tire that looks awesome but my opinion is yet to be determined..

I think thats it to date..

If I had a bigger Grizz, I'd try Pitbull Rockers. Since I don't, I just went to Bighorns...

I loved the Dirt Commanders. I would still have them as my 'sport and play' tire. I ran them when I rode close to the house. They gripped so great.

Bighorns were a flat tire waiting to happen. Way to many flats to count.
Bajacross so far so good much better tire , than the BH.

Im a firm believer in tire pressure .... i will "sacrifice " a little to none at all reduction in traction to keep from having a flat, having said that im running a set of 6ply Quadboss mudbosses with 20 psi zero flats so far... but on the other hand these tires hook up way to good to have on the little 450, its robbing me of what little power i did have, probably going to switch back to the grim reapers

I believe that you are the first person I've heard say they have had alot of flats about bighorns. Usually the opposite! But hey those Bajacross do look like a stout tire.

I ran 10 lbs in the BH and the same in the BC tires. The only diff is no flats with the BC tires and I have over 800 miles on the BC tires. I hope it stays that way.
I did have GBC Dirt tamers and those were the worst tires ever. Every time I went out I would get at least 1 flat some times 2.

On my Kodiak 450 I have a set of MSTs... Over 2200 miles on them, and they never got a flat. I loved them tires. I put them through alot of crap, and they didn't miss a beat! Only half worn when I sold the ATV....

I am now running Douglas Moapa’s. The truth is I do not know how they are holding up yet. I have 2 rides on them and they appear to be ok. I will say the ride is a tad stiffer than before.
I ran Bighorns for over 3 years. The best tires I have ever ridden on.

OG Big Horns on my Kodiak 450 and the Terxy4 came stock with Big Horn 2.0's. I'm thinking OG Big Horns or Pit Bull Rockers for the Teryx4 when the time comes to replace the 2.0's.

I believe that! I have already had to retire the bg 2.0's from multiple flats. I'm not saying that there bad tires. I am just use to running low tire pressure and it bit me in the @zz. What tires is everybody running?? What's your thoughts? 607262

I run 14 psi all around on my bighorns, I don't know how much weight you have but I would at least run the 14 psi if I was you.
