so after a day of riding loaded my ride up into my p/u and noticed chunks of treads missing out of my right rear maxxis bighorn 2.0. just wondering if anybody else has ripped treads off of any of their tires or am i just to much beast for this machine. additional note this was the second time out with the new tires.

its probably you...
none of my friends ever shredded tires...
although on some tight trails, i had a long cut on one of my threads i know its from a rock that bumped into my rear wheel in a turn...it was like a cut with an exacto... just for the thread... luckily it was a thread and not my sidewall... it was pretty deep maybe 1/2"

mine was also cut about 1/2 inch deep and as if it was done by a razor blade. talked to my local atv/utv/motorcycle/small engine guy and he said he's seen it before on bigger tread tires and it's not so uncommon.
