    Anyone run Kenda Bearclaws??

    Looking for a tire that will really pull the big red, especially in low gear! I hate when my wooly boogers pack up with mud and just spin. I guess I am spoiled with the Outlaws on my 4-wheeler!
    Just want some feedback on them, I found (2) 25x13.5x9 for 136 bucks including shipping

    Do not be afraid to put them on backwards either. Better in the snow and mud that way.

    I havent seen them on a trike in person but on all the 4 wheelers I've seen they performed great. Also no-one complained at all. Seem to be a good tire.

    I really like my Kenda Bearclaws. I will be getting another set for my other SX.

    I may have to try running them backwards...

    i got a set of 25x12.5-9s on my 200 im impressed with how well they do in snow i havent got to try them in the mud yet however.

    ps make sure when u get them that there not stacked on eachother cause it will cause the bottom tire to concave and its a slut to fill with air after

    13.5 is realy wide for a trike, or anything for that matter.. watch they dont hit your pipe or battery.. Your probly going to need spacers or a different off set rim.. But they are a great tire...

    ALot of riders in my area run those tires.. or tires similar to them. They even run paddles and mud tires in the coal mines on the sportquads.
