My first post here after lurking for a year or so.
I've owned my 1000-5 Deluxe for a bit over two years now and it's time for new tires. I use my rig more for tree work, plowing and what I call glorified golf cart use than I do trail riding. No matter what I'm doing it sees a lot of asphalt and gravel miles and I'd like something quieter and that wears better.
I'm licensed and street legal and am not required to run DOT tires but I'm limiting my search to those that are street legal.
I had pretty much decided on Tensor Regulators but then I called a local ATV/UTV dealership owned by the same parent company as my Honda dealership that has Quadboss QBT846's in stock. They have 28x10-14 and may also have 27's in both 9's and 11's. I'll probably go with 28x10 all around since they fit the stock rims and if I ever switch rims I'll go with the same size all around so I can rotate.
It sounds like the 846's are a comparable tire to the Tensors. I found previous posts about the QBT846 but most were from at least several months ago, assuming I searched correctly. I thought I'd start a new thread rather than ask a question in each thread.
So with all that said, I'd be interested in hearing updates from anyone running these tires and in particular if anyone has been able to compare them to the Tensor Regulators. If they are similar but somewhat different I'd favor the quieter tire or the one that would be better in snow. If it's a tossup I'd probably choose the Quadboss and support a local business.
Thanks in advance.
