One of my rear tires has a hole in it, and I'm looking to get a new set. I have one brand new Carlisle Turf Buster, and can just buy one more and then I'd be good, or I was thinking about picking up a set of the following tires:

Mud Lites
Spider Tracs
Bear Claws
Dirt Devils
Gators
Mud Bugs
Maxxis Sur Traks

There is alot of water and mud around here, and alot of rocks as well. Some trails are old logging trails, and the odd time I'd be riding on a dried up snowmachine trail(gravel, rocks). Just looking for opinions on which tires are good for mud and snow, and that won't wear out if you take them on a packed trail after a while. Keep in mind, that I could just buy another Carlisle Turf Buster and have a set of those, but are any of these tires like a large amount better, and really dig thru the mud? Thank you much in advance.

I have 25x12.5-9 Bear Claws on my 83 big red. Those tires are amazing. Mud, Snow, Rocks, and dirt road riding, they have crazy traction. Also they are 6 ply so a flat tire is almost impossible. Bear Claws are the way to go.
