I'm in northern iowa. So a good mix of mud, snow and trail riding. And a lot of paved roads. I did a lot of research and watched videos. I ended up with the Maxxis Carnivores in a 28x10-14. And then upgraded to STI HD9 true Beadlocks. They are a radial tire that have a soft enough compound for snow and mud etc. They ride awesome.

Another picture of the true to size 28" Maxxis vs the 27" Sedona Coyote. They fit fine with no rub and all stock suspension.

I run 30” K9 Super Grips and they’ve been great so far.

I'm guessing you have forward control arms? To be able to fit 30's with no rubbing?

That is correct.

Welcome from Mississippi. We don't have much snow here but plenty of mud. I sold my black stones and bought 28 inch Bighorns. They are an excellent all around tire.

Do you ride a lot of blacktop/pavement? If so, you'll probably want to lean more towards an all-terrain style tire (Tusk Terrabite, Tensor Regulators, Braven Berserkers, BFG KM3, etc). Or just keep the stock tires for around the house or wherever you are riding a lot of pavement and toss the new ones on when you head out to the trails or woods.

Russ, did those tires kill your low end torque? i cant remeber if i read that you installed a IGR due to the power loss. i hadnt looked at that tire yet, they seem to be 5lbs a tire less than the Braven tires i have been thinking about purchasing. They also appear to be more open and better for the mud.

I lost a little bit but my rig did fine last month at Windrock. We did several trails, 16, 21 and 22 were the trails I used to grade the tires, they performed better on rocks than I thought they would. No IGR for me.
