Looking for a tire that will really pull the big red, especially in low gear! I hate when my wooly boogers pack up with mud and just spin. I guess I am spoiled with the Outlaws on my 4-wheeler!
Just want some feedback on them, I found (2) 25x13.5x9 for 136 bucks including shipping

Do not be afraid to put them on backwards either. Better in the snow and mud that way.

I havent seen them on a trike in person but on all the 4 wheelers I've seen they performed great. Also no-one complained at all. Seem to be a good tire.

I really like my Kenda Bearclaws. I will be getting another set for my other SX.

I may have to try running them backwards...

i got a set of 25x12.5-9s on my 200 im impressed with how well they do in snow i havent got to try them in the mud yet however.

ps make sure when u get them that there not stacked on eachother cause it will cause the bottom tire to concave and its a slut to fill with air after

13.5 is realy wide for a trike, or anything for that matter.. watch they dont hit your pipe or battery.. Your probly going to need spacers or a different off set rim.. But they are a great tire...

Wondering what the Diff is too, running them backwards? J.C. Whitneys delivers fast.http://www.jcwhitney.com/KENDA-TUBELESS-BEARCLAW-K299-TIRES/GP_2014283_N_111+10213+600014315_10113.jcw

ALot of riders in my area run those tires.. or tires similar to them. They even run paddles and mud tires in the coal mines on the sportquads.

not an advantage down here in the mud, bud. If yall have that black clay over in new orleans... black jack mud is the worst.

it's quite typical down here to step, come up with out a boot...tug on your boot until you're out of breath, only to realise your other boot is stuck.

sticky, heavy, and no soupiness factor.
