back in the day when I rode all the time I ran spider-tracs on my 200x....I was always happy with the way they performed especially in snow and mud....what would be the best tire out now that would be comparable??? Bear Claws??? also what was the stock size for the back tires on a 350x?? :TrikesOwn

Look into sur-traks. I see you have a 72 in your sig. Got a pic?

I have Sur-Traks on my 350X and love em for mud and snow. They don't handle that great but if your into mud and snow riding you'll love them.

22x11x9 is stock. Those are about the only style tire us guys run up here in the coal fields of PA. I run 20 inch mudlights, and they work good, but could really use that extra 2 inches for ground clearance...

I've been riding those mudlites almost every weekend for almost a year. (alot of road riding too) they show very little wear.

Guys I rode with this weekend suggested running them backwards so they don't dig too much. personally I dont hillclimb and I think that looks sorta ghey! LOL

thanks for the comments on the truck.....it is stock color Medium Green is what it was called......that grille is 71-72 only.......I gotta couple of weeks to decide on tires but it will definately be either shur tracs or bear claws.....just have to decide if I should get new rims with them........:w00t:
