Shortly after buying my 850 I realized stock tires are not going to get me anywhere. I purchased a set of 27" Swamp Lites. The Swamp Lites are a great tire, light weight and awesome handling characteristics for hard packed trail riding. The Swamp Lites did great in the mud as well. The only time I was stuck in the mud was when I got high centered. Swamp Lites only come in a 28" tall tire and I wanted to go bigger. I found the ITP Mayhem series, Monster being the 30". Based on the tread design they say not only will they work great in the mud but they will also perform well on hard packed surfaces. My 850 is in the shop with electrical issues so I will be testing the tires on my 550 tomorrow without a clutch kit. When I get my 850 back I will install a clutch kit with these tires. Till then I'm testing tomorrow on my 550. I will give a review with video. I will go places my Swamp Lites couldn't cut it and see if the Monster Mayhems pull through. :cowboy:
