So, I just joined this site and just purchased my first Grizzly 700 a couple days ago. I’m looking to put some 14" wheels and some new tires on it. I just can’t make up my mind on the tires. The problem is, where I live, most of what i will be riding through will be muddy. I’m not crazy about getting too muddy but don’t have much of a choice! I don’t plan on going crazy in the mud like some people do, but I want to be able to play a little sometimes. I also don’t want to go with something too bulky and heavy and lose a lot of power. Plus, I want to be able to take it to the mountains and trail ride at times, and the machine will see a lot of hard packed trail action along with some pavement.
I’ve looked into the EFX MotoMTC, and the Mayhems. I Just don’t want to get beat to death while on a hard packed trail. I also love the Big Horns, but hear that they are useless in the mud.
I know some sacrifices are going to have to be made, and I’m fine with that. I don’t think I wana go any larger than a 27". Anybody have any suggestions?
