You may want to take a look at the GBC Grim Reaper or Spartacus tires. They are an 8 ply rated radial so they would give you excellent sidewall protection. They are both good all around tires but the Spartacus is better is you are in the mud quite a bit.
Here is a link to them:

Let us know if we can help.

I have now got the new Interco Swamp Lite tires on my Polaris ,they seem to work good for my kind of driving with log trailer.The size is 26x10 in front and 26x12 on rear, this wil make it posible to run chains on the midle wheels and front wheels in the winter.

I hate to drool....but dayum! Dude...if my dad wasn't having heart problems and could still do firewood...he would be all over this...I know I am looking into this setup!
Are you not rubbing with that wide of tire on the front, or do you have wheel spacers?

I have wheel spacers in front and have to use spacers on the rear wheels when i put snow chains on it this winter, i now have put on 50hrs the machine and will do service on it next week. I have got the cluch kit from EPI to put on,so i hope the pulling of full trailers will be bether.

Hi, I have now bought my new snow chains to put on Big Boss, I just have to get myself some new spacers in front so that the snow chains will clear the dampers, do some of you have any suggestions on where I should buy these from , I need spacers that are 1.5 "wide. I have now put on the EPI Clutch kit to but havent had full trailers yet so i am not sure of the pulling capacity .
