I saw that 200s on ebay a few months ago. No mistaking the flames. Were you the buyer or seller?

Those bear claws are about 150can a piece. The tires you are thinking of is a dirt dogg I think by kenda they are about 70-80can a piece.

no...turf tamers suck in; real mud, and snow, i got a set.....they might be good in the little mud puddles from raining, but if you put them in real mud, your just spinning

mud bog tires have no place on a trike. ESPECIALLY an non suspended model. If you MUST have a tire with a similar tread pattern, I reccommend a wooley booger, or clone of one. On a non suspended machine they have more "balloon effect" and on a suspended one, it wouldnt matter. They have a soft compound for hard pack, and a chevron tread for your woodchuck mudding and snow use. I ran them for snow use, and they worked great. and in summer they did not "thump, thump, thump" because they were not too aggressive.

I had some super samper vampires on my trx250 utility. Heavy tires like that take lots of power to turn them. I was very disappointed in them, so be caregul not to buy to heavey of a tire. It could barely pull itself through soft sand.

Fast trekkers seem to be a good all around tire, at least I like them and they are cheap.

I had 20" Fast Trekkers on my 200x for Trikefest 3 and they did great in the mud and are cheap too.

thanks alot guys, i am probaly goin with the fast treekers, but, rolled the trike today!! ( i wasnt hurt, bailed off, but hurt the raer plastics (dont worry, was about to order new ones) and thats it, i just jumped back on it, it was flooded so towed it behind the 4 wheeler and pop started it, then wet for another hour on it, lol.

Well, thanks alot again, by the way, how much are fast treekers canadian?

I would also like to see a set, i hear they are good, but would like to see them, thanks alot.
