And honestly it would have been great to buy one, but who wants to have one new tire and the other old and going bald tire. So it was a necessary item to go ahead and get a second new rear atv tire.
I looked at a few that I thought would be good but landed on buying the DNT Deestone D930 tires, they weren't as expensive as some of the others. I had my put on at discount tire for $80/tire but these on amazon on the link were cheaper at about $62/tire with free shipping.
Pro's:
1. the tires are a more average all around tire than something real aggressive for say mud but these grip the surface real well.
2. cheaper than others
3. 4 ply tire to resist cracking and punctures
Con's:
1. It feels a little more of a lower profile tire2. 28lbs per tire that grips a little hard when turning real sharp
Overall-
The tire for money performs real well in 2 wheel and 4 wheel drive mode. I had plenty of traction to move some trees on my land where before moving cedars can be tough to do with a Atv.
And to mention I mow around 5-6 acres of pasture with my Swisher RC11544BS 11.5 HP 44-Inch Rough Cut Trail Cutter
and the tires did fine pulling it and mowing over rocks and even hitting a few cactus's.
The 44inch mower has been great, I've had mine for 4 years now and have just kept the standard maintenance on the engine. Biggest issues I've had is keeping the belt tight, but once a year I'll buy a new belt and blades and it makes all the difference in the world!
If I had to do it over again I wish I would have spent a little more and went with 14.5 hp engine instead of the 11.5hp. I have 18 acres of land and moving 5 to 6 acres and cutting trails and high brush would definitely be easier on me with the electric start instead of the manual one having to get off the atv if it gets too bogged down and engine dies.
So my advice, just go with the larger engine
