    I've tried both the Mudlites and the Bear Claws..they are good tires, no question.

    But recently I helped my brother reclad his 1st 250ES..we set him up with Excutioners and I have to say they beat them both.

    Here is how we set his up:

    1st: 4/110 ITP Steel Wheel 12x7 2.0 + 5.0 Silver x3 (front also)

    2nd: Kenda Executioner ATV Tire 25x8-12 as his front..

    3rd: Kenda Executioner ATV Tire 25x10-12 for his rears..

    Once you have the 12" rims on it really opens the tire selections up and this 12" fits the front offset without the need to shim or spacer to centre. What a huge handling improvement installing a thinner front tire makes..

    One word of note..don't feel the need to install the biggest tire you can find. The larger the tire the more weight and trust me when I say the Executioners are the heavy!! And the addition diameter of a 26 or 27 is a major torque robber and when you're in the thick stuff you need that torque..

    Out of production now, but the ORIG Outlaw tires made by highlifter were amazing, went though more stuff with a sports quad than a 4x4 could. They run on a 12in rim as well. Very light weight and they were 28 inch on a 350 warrior. Had to regear it as low as we could and it still wasn't enough lol.
