mud lites?
« on: January 10, 2009, 02:08:39 PM »
So, with the IRS the 700 has plenty of ground clearance to go through mud and not get caught up easily as a quad with a straight axel would. What im wondering is, if i put ITP mud lites on the trx700xx would it go good through the mud? ??? there are no you tube vids of the 700 going through mud yet so i havent seen any proof of their "4-bying" abilities. I just know the Polaris vidoe showed the outlaw going good through mud with its IRS system, so i guess im assuming the 700 will tear through mud like no other. oh, and one more thing, i live in Alaska, and when i say mud, i mean like swamp mud about 1 to 2 foot deep at times, running half way up the tires at least.

Well it definitely will not perform like a 4x4 in the mud, but you can get close. Putting regular mud lites on the 700xx is not a good idea, go with the mud lite sports. They are designed for sport machines. The only problem with these is the tallest tire is only 20"

This brings up another point, there are many tires which aren't all that popular but they are really good in the mud, specifically for sport quads. A quick google search can show you a bit.

Turf Tamers would have to be the worst tires ever in the mud...horrible cleanout.
