I appreciate all the input, I triangulated the feedback I received here with other sources and ordered the ITP Mud Lites. What makes this information valuable to me is... many Trapperman resources are using ATV's & UTV's in the same applications, conditions and diverse terrain. A lot of online information encompasses- street riders, trail riders, racers etc. Thanks for taking the time to respond and influencing my decision.

I heard the mudlites tend to be prone to punctures as they are lite tires. Anyone else hear that? other than thinner rubber what would designate the "lite" in the name?

Far from an expert but based on my research- The Mud Lite tires are a 6ply, the heavier the ply the heavier the tire and less puncture resistant. If I was runny rocky terrain -I think I would opt for an 8-10 ply tire, the lower the ply, the better the traction, the heavier ply, the heavier the tire weight will be. I'm not racing so weight isn't that big of a concern but the heavier ply tires rob power and put additional strain on the drive-train- it was recommended that you stay close to manufactured tire specifications without making machine modifications to accommodate heavier and larger diameter tires.

I have had no issues with punctures on my mud lites. I run them on various terrain from rocky surfaces to deep mud and everthing in between. Has been a great tire since I've been using them. Eric

I have ITP XTR's on my snow plowing ATV. Work great in snow. Never really had them in deep mud but have gone through mud with no problem.

I changed the dirt hook tires on my old 94 honda 4 trax when they got worn and went with the mud lites.Great tire for the bush and OK on the logging roads.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.
