Yes they will get through alot of mud, If you have the right tires... Water is nothing...

So this is for anyone how knows.....

What is a good mud tire? I need something that will go through alot of mud.
Right now I have 22x11x8 tires.. I know I need something bigger but what kind?? Please tell me... I just went through some mud (really sticky) it went about half way up on one tire and I got stuck, even with reverse! .... SO help me.

i have Nan Kang's on my 86 250x and they work very well, also timsr posted All Trax are very good mud tires and i would definatly trust his opinion.

My 250lb brother FLOATED my SX across our grandparents pond when he had it. Never even sucked water into the airbox. (3wheelers float pretty good.)

trikes are great in the mud, in my opinion, better than a quad (except the 4x4 of coarse) because they ony have the single front wheel to push through instead of the added rersistance of the 2 on the front of a 2 wheel drive quad. a nice 4 stroke trike (250sx big red, 350x) will likely impress dad pretty well.

i know this look like just water, but there's a very soft mud bottom in there and my x goes right through no prob. i have sure traks on the back but i don't think they sell them anymore.

I have a 250es that I mud all the time, or else I'd have a 200x lol. They do just as good as a comparable quad, but float much better. Depending on the mud, they may have a harder time because quads have the front tires to clear a path for the back, a trike has to make 3 new ruts. I've got HD Field Trax(about the same as Buckshot mudders) and even though they take a while sometimes, they always get through.

My 350x did great today, I hit a couple trails today I had no bussiness being on but the 350x cruised right on up. I would'nt take my 250r on it though. if you get a trike get something with some torque in a 4 stroke like a 200x or a 350x.

Time to whip out the polish... hehehe :-D

**BLAZERONE22** · 05-26-2003, 12:41 AM

Done!

**Honda300ex** · 05-26-2003, 12:46 AM

lol... How long did that take you?

**BLAZERONE22** · 05-26-2003, 12:57 AM

About an hour, I cheated though, I bought a 5hp presure washer yesterday, knocked down all the big stuff, just have to be careful not to hit the decals. Crappy thing is, some buddies want to go out riding tommrow.

:?

**Honda300ex** · 05-26-2003, 01:00 AM

Lol.. my friends shee is decalless b/c of the car wash.. I left my plastic muddy for about a week and it was a pain to clean up.. gonna keep it nice from now on....

**350Xccelerator** · 05-26-2003, 01:03 AM

hey blazerone wut size holeshots and rims are those on your 350x?

**BLAZERONE22** · 05-26-2003, 01:03 AM

try some of that fast wax stuff, it comes in a spray bottle, I put some on the auto x and it was way easier to clean than my x.
