Maxxis Mud bugs or Itp Mud Lites?
just looking for anyone's opinion on a mud/trail tire ive narrowed it down to mud bugs or mudlites because of the decent 1 '' lug pattern for the 25'' tires, as im keeping them on the stock rims. Just wondering on anyoone's input as to which one is better for more trail then mud but hitting a good mud hole on the side. Id be fine with the bugs as long as they dont vibrate much worse than stock and ride fine on the trails. any help is appreciated thanks.

ya thats what ive heard its really somthing i have to decide for myself as everyone has different opinions alot of ppl say the mudlite XL's do well others dont but i think alot of ppl see it as a big mudding tire which its not so its rated bad from ppl liek that. i would go with the mudbugs as the more aggresive tread i was just wondering if they ride rly ruff at all alittle bit of vibration or anything wont bother me unless its heavely noticable thanks anyone else with info please chime in

im thinkin of going with the 1 inch lug maxxis zilla's in the 25'' option as they have both the 3/4 inch and 1 inch in that height. i was going to go with the bugs but the inflated width is too much and it will hit the tie rod 8.3 inflated vrs stock 7.4. the zilla is only 7.6'' so it has enuf room for that

Take a look at STI Mud Trax XL's. 1 1/4" lugs & been a great all around tire so far, have over 2,100 miles on them & very little tire wear. Slight vibration on hard pack when going 5 mph or under. Gonna put them on the red wheeler when the budget allows!

no I have a choice to make between bugs, or lites, I have two freinds, both selling their tires, both roughly the same tread left, both roughly the same price...which one to choose
