Maxxis - M961 Mud Bug Front Tire
This is an awesome tire. I am running 26X10x12 and 26X12x11 on my 2008 Honda Rancher 4x4. The tires are true to height and are a full 3 inches taller than '24' inch stockers. They are also very light for such and aggressive tire and I have had no noticeable loss of power. They ride smooth, steer, climb, and handle extremely well. Traction is outstanding in all conditions but I am still slide the rear on aggressive trail riding. They are amazing in the mud for an all terrain type tire and I honestly believe they are not a compromise in any area.

We mounted our Mud Bugs on steel rims and used them on our brand new 2009 Yamaha Grizzly 550. These tires look and perform great on this machine. We get a smooth ride even at speeds in excess of 60 mph. Great tire for on and off-roading. We plan on using these tires mostly for summertime trails. This winter we are using 27 inch Zilla's mounted on lightweight aluminum rims. This tire is slightly more aggressive than the Mud Bugs and should give us a bit more traction in the snow. This info we got from our Yamaha Dealer where we purchased our 550. I personally like the idea of rotating tires because it prolongs the life of the tires.

Had these tires for a month and traveled on the Hatfield McCoy system. Very impressed, through mud, water & over rocks.
