  1. Talon X LV
Setting up my Talon as a trail riding machine with the occasional muddy adventure. I had the Terrabites on my Pioneer and they didn’t do to bad in the mud down here but wondering if the Megabites would do better. Just trying to get opinions on these two tires.

The biggest complaint I here from southern mudders is the I4wd sucks, regardless of your tires….

Ran terrabites, megabites,trilobites, super swampers.now I'm on 28 carnivores they all had major draw backs I perfer carnivores. I still have trilobites mounted on second set of rims there is not a better all around tire on the planet. I love my carnivores but are useless in spring and fall rainy muddy conditions. The trilobites don't seem to get good mileage 700 half gone but the bighorn tread pattern is the best tire for all around use.

What size are you running on the trilobites. Do they run bigger amor smaller than marked.

They run small all tusk tires do. I've seen people running 29 trilobites on stock p1000 with no rubbing

I’m in a Talon and only want to run 30’s. The Carnivores only come in a 29 or 32 in the 15” rim. I’ve heard that the 14” rims are a bit close on the Talons. Anybody got an opinion?

Carnivores in a 29 would be bigger or at least same height as a 30 terrabite imho

I’m tempted to try the 29” the next time I shoe mine.

Ditto, currently running Tusk Trilobytes on OEM wheels 29x9x14 front and 29x11x14 rear, no rubbing on stock P1000. And an excellent all around tread choice copying the Bighorn pattern.

That’s good to know. I like the pattern and the heavy ply but herd they run small. Didn’t want a smaller 27 and the only option was 29”
