I would not go with a set of swamp lites they are a terrible tire. i would go with a set of 27-28" maxxis zilla's

 

Whats the issue with swamp lights ? Alot of guys around here are running them but ive never owned a set

 

They suck in mud/swamp

 

They seem to wear pretty fast too.

 

i had 28 swamplights and i honestly dont know whay everyone hates on them so much they rode nice for me and i went through holes XMR's got stuck in if you know how to ride with them they work good as 30's go i run 30 radial laws on my outty 800 and it turns them not too badly but i got mine clutched piped and programmed you will need a clutch at the very least to turn them

 

Um I don't think suck lite will take u as far as SB would I have some on my Honda n my buddie has 29.5 suck kites on a 800r max n every hole he got suck in I was just after him n made it. In some hole I made it 2 wd n that was with my s/w SB

 

30" Mudlites won't hurt anything. My wife ran them for years on completely stock bike with no problems, I ran all wide 30" Mudlites with no issues. Pulled them easier than most 28's.

Oh, and swamplites are anything but light. Miss leading name there... And they may be an ok tire (for a few), but there are so many other tires out there that out perform them that they really aren't even worth considering.

Of course this is just my opinion. :smilietwocents:

 

Sounds good to me . I guess ill be keeping the mudlights. I do have a set of 27" bearclaws on stock rims that i can change back and forth depending on what im riding. Thanks for the input

 

I rode 27" swamp lites on my grizzly for awhile and had no problem. Then sold grizzly to a buddy I ride with and he loves them. They ride smooth and seem to last. Backs and laws are obviously better in the mud but if you dont Want a strictly mud tire, swamp lites are a good tire

 

30" backs on mine. 800 miles, 2 seasons and 0 breakdowns. Stock axles and all.

 

Also , figured id post this wuestion here instead of starting another thread. My wheels came with my bike , they are all chrome , the bike is camo.. So they dont really match , what would be the best way to paint the wheels without it chipping off ? Or should i just wait and trade them . There some brand of itp wheels

 

I like those wheels! They are ITP type 7's or C7's or something. You could trade or get them powder coated. Or you can send them off and have them hydro-dipped camo to match, but that's probably more expensive.

 

I was thinking on taking them to a rimshop and getting then powder coated. Not really sure if itll hold up though. Last thing i want is the powdercoating coming off and havinga half black and chrome wheel and have to do it again. Has anyone tried this ?

 

When done right, powder coating is very tough. That's how the aftermarket black rims are made black anyway isn't it?

 

Powder coated camo.....

 

That would probally cost more then new wheels lol .. If its even possible . I was just thinking black

 

Yeah I don't think powder coating Camo is very feasable... What about the bronze color that comes on MSA wheels?
