IMO Mud Lites are a great all around tire. I run 26" XLs on my 450. They perform great on the trail and in the mud and aren't too agressive for the smaller bores. There's a reason they are the most popular after market tire for quads.

If you do not like the swamp lites you will not like the mud lites either. pretty much in the same category. EDL's and Vamps dig very hard so you break more things and go straight to the bottom of whatever your in. OUTLAWS and Silverbacks pull more than they dig, therefore you can go through deeper ruts and mud. I run Outlaws. I liked my Mud Lites and Swamplites before I got on a set of Outlaws. The Outlaws only tend to break things when people don't know when to quit. I have never broken anything in the drivetrain. Now running my motor with no oil was a different story!

THANKS FOR THE REPLY. STILL UN-DECIDED. THE LARGEST TIRE I CAN RUN WILL PROBABLY BE 27'. I DONT THINK THAT THEY MAKE 27; IN A 14' RIM. I MAY JUST STICK WITH THE SWAMPLITE FOR NOW (SINCE THEY ARE NEW).THE SWAMPLITE ARE A LOT BETTER THAN THE TERRA CROSS IN THE MUD.
THANKS AGAIN!!!

They make a 27" 589. If I could not run outlaws or silverbacks the 589 would be my next pick

They may not go "through" everything you want to, but you can back out of everything you get in with them.
