What a mammoth undertaking, well done. Would love to see another test after 5 years to include some of the newer tires out there against the top eight from the old test

Great suggestion! Thanks for watching.

[@johnshultz4422]

I put the ITP Blackwater Evo's on my current and previous Arctic Cat 700's. They are VERY, VERY stiff. I found, airing down to 3-5 psi made a HUGE difference. They are my favorite tires for the varied terrain here in the great Pacific Northwest of the USA.

[@chaparralmotorsports]

Great feedback John. The Blackwater was my favorite tire as we unloaded them from the truck. It was my guess on who was going to take 1st place. -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team

@@chaparralmotorsports I did a review of them around 2011 for ATVPT and another online reviewer stole my pictures from my review-lol. I liked them tires a lot, sold the machine.

[@epic2916]

This is a great video. I am curious on some of the other tires that were in the competition. I have been looking at some new tires for a Grizzly 700 and on many forums I mostly see the Kenda HTR's and Maxxis bighorns (both original and 2.0). A few have strayed to other brands but would really like to see the comparison between them and the AMS Slingshot XT.

[@chaparralmotorsports]

Hello Ed Burton, the Kenda HTR's are great tires and they took 3rd place overall scoring 35 points as compared to the Slingshot XT's 25 points for 1st place. We also have two new tires for you to look at as well... they were not finished before the test began, but one is like the BigHorn and the other is like the BigHorn 2.0 Take a look: The Knight tire is like the Bighorn: www.chapmoto.com/tg-knight-utility-atv-utv-tire-parent-748-q350-0005 and the Atlas Tire is like the BigHorn 2.0: www.chapmoto.com/tg-atlas-utility-atv-utv-tire-parent-748-q350-0080

[@epic2916]

I should have asked if there was a list of the tires involved. I have been doing a ton of research on tires and have been considering many options. Knowing the tires in the contest not just the winners may help in a decision as I may like a tire with what I red online from the manufacturer but no reviews on how they actually perform. Always good to get more information that just the sales pitch :-)

[@njgl2010]

I'm late to the party lol Thanks for taking the time to do this. Still choosing the ITPs tho.

[@chaparralmotorsports]

Hey no problem, glad you found the video and enjoyed it. The ITPs are great tires. Enjoy. Ride safe. Thanks for watching.

[@chadsteele1]

Good tests, and although atvs similar to smaller side by slides, see midsize ranger, mule etc, do you have a tire test for these as well or would u say these tires are good for these machines as well?

[@chaparralmotorsports]

Not yet

[@lcdubs7847]

I would have liked to have seen a rock category. The trails where I live either have lots of big, sharp boulders, or it's full on peat bog. Then of course, we have to travel a fair amount of dirt road and pavement to link up the trails, so I need a tire that's smooth riding, durable, and decent in the mud. Tough combination.

[@chaparralmotorsports]

Hello, thanks for the input. Due to so many tires we tested, this was an extremely long couple of days of testing. We did the tests because we found locations that allowed us to tackle multiple tests in two different locations. Unfortunately there were no rocky areas within close proximity that would have made testing all these tires along with doing all the other tests feasible. Maybe next time.

[@studadams8742]

Why was the Kanati mongrel not on this list?

[@chaparralmotorsports]

Not enough time in the day. No good answer... It is a great top selling tire for sure.

[@markmanning6773]

Hard to believe that about Blackwater evolutions. I really like mine but they are on a UTV. I wonder if make a difference?

[@chaparralmotorsports]

Thank you for your comment Mark. We were surprised too! I totally had my money on the Blackwater tires too... but looking at the numbers... The Blackwater Evolution tire were 36 lbs for the front and 41 lbs for the rear tires for a total of 154 lbs. The winning tire with just as aggressive tread pattern, the AMS Slingshot weighed 28 lbs for the front and 31 lbs for the rear making them 16 pounds lighter in the front and 20 pounds lighter in the rear. I think that was the main reason they did not fair as well as I would have guessed. Regardless, the Blackwater are great tires in my personal experiences and they are a TOP seller too! - Kyle & the Chap Moto Team

[@ronbchamps]

Great way to do a tire review but there is still one piece of information missing. How long will they last without cracking? That would be an excellent piece of info to add. I had some ITP mud lites with lots of tread left but with no obvious cracks but upon closer examination they were leaking from the sidewalls and had started craking around the lugs. From what I have seen Kenda tires could possibly be the worst for cracking. Is that a thing of the past with Kenda? Or have they improved in the last 5 years?

[@chaparralmotorsports]

Hi Ron, thanks for brining that up. That's something we will have to take into consideration for next time. Although, cracking is typically associated with the manner in which the tires/vehicle is stored. Leaving tires/vehicle stored in direct sunlight/ heat or wet/damp/cold conditions for extended periods of time can accelerate deterioration of the rubber which can cause cracking. Not sure about the issue you bring up about Kenda.

[@RAZO45]

Over all? No snow or ice test???

[@chaparralmotorsports]

Do you suggest staying with the 25 inch size for a honda 520 4x4? Or would a 26 or 27 be better? Thanks

It depends on what you're intentions are? Adding larger tires/wheels is going to add more weight and affect overall power/performance. But the additional height/clearance may be beneficial for specific terrain/types of riding.

I second the vote for the Kenda Executioners. I pull 6’ long, 2’ diameter OAK logs with a 16 Kodiak with Grabber diff kit and these tires let you know how much your wheeler can REALLY snatch!! I have climbed MOST things I’ve tried to climb. Mud is good but you better have the wheel speed to clean em out and it goes over logs like butter.

[@skelley521]

Missing a key Factor. Handling or Off Camber. Most directional tires go straight well, but sacrifice handling or off camber performance for forward traction.

[@chaparralmotorsports]

Good observation. Thanks for the input, we'll consider that for next time. Thanks for watching.

[@heavenleigh111]

I'd like to see a video of tires that actually are the size that they claim to be!

[@chaparralmotorsports]

Great suggestion in the dirt. We did measure each tire, mounted to the wheel, and all with the same air pressure, but not on the vehicle. All 22 of the 25" tires we tested measured between 24-1/4" and 25-1/4". The majority were 24-1/4" with just two measuring exactly 25" and two which measured larger than 25". Tread depth was .57" to 1.1" with most being pretty close to 1". Lots of variables. How would you propose the tires be measured? Mounted or Unmounted? If mounted, at what air pressure? Thanks for watching! - Kyle & the Chap Moto Team

[@heavenleigh111]

Chaparral Motorsports that's great news. I've not been that lucky with tires that have more of a sport, knobby type tread. Some have been over two inches smaller than what they were labeled as. Thanks for letting us know these are fairly accurate. Yes, if you measure them do it with them on the rim and aired up to a medium to max recommended pressure in them as that would be when it matters to most of us, I think

in the dirt, Tires can have the same number and not even be close to one another. Crazy !!

I tried the AMS Slingshot XT tires based on this review. But I needed the 14" Rim size for my Outlander 650 XT, and they are literally 2" shorter than my OEM 26" tires. In this review I know they are all comparing 25" with 12" rim size. but many of today's expensive quads ship with 14" rims. So my advice if you have a 14" rim, "Do not buy AMS Slingshot XT in a 14" rim size."

[@chaparralmotorsports]

Interesting comment / observation James. I personally measured all of the 25" tires we tested and all of them measured 25" +/- .5 to .75 inches depending on the brand. Strange the 14" rim size was so far off! What size width was you OEM tire compared to the AMS? The Slingshot I measured was 24-3/8" in height | 9-3/4 in width | Durometer reading of 6| .96" Tread Depth. -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team

[@vansantsam]

A test that you did not do, how they perform on wet rock or wet clay.. I have used several tires myself as well as ride with people who have various tires.. My liking for the top tire for all around, are the Interco Reptile radials, only to be out done in one category by the MudCat (Ocelot P-375) and that was wet rocks and wet clay.. mainly because of the soft compound of the MudCats.. but they do not wear very well at all.. I don't know if you tested the Reptiles or if you did what your results were but in my opinion the Reptile is the best all around tire (other than wet rocks - and even there they were not totally lacking and were more than adequate and only slightly took second behind the MucCat).. The only real drawback of the Reptiles is in sand or very extreme loose dirt where you will dig a hole really fast, (mainly because of the aggressive tread and 1 inch deep cleats) and compromise your situation so throttle control is a must in the really extreme loose stuff.. In order to get the Reptiles to perform on par with the MudCats on wet rock - dropping the air pressure in the Reptiles almost produces the same results as MudCats (but who is going to keep adjusting tire pressure while on the trail)..

Thank you Jim Richard for your comments. We did not test the Reptile nor the MudCat tires. Wet Rock / Wet Clay is a great suggestion for our next round of testing! Thank you for watching. - Kyle & the Chap Moto Team

you can not take one ATV and put tires on that atv and say it will perform the same on all atvs, we have over 50 people in our Group and we all have different atvs most have the same tires and one will do way better than the other atvs with the same tire and the rider has alot to do with it to, I'm glad you do your videos put the tires on different ATVS and riders and they will perform different on every one

@@stoneycarter5546 It's a comparison of one machine. You know how that works right? You still can compare with that ONE machine. It will give a person something to think about. You really think they can compare all the ATV's with ALL the tires??? You R Twisted Bra!🤣

It’s a comparative measurement, man…there’s nothing wrong with it whatsoever. It absolutely can be done with just one machine and is exactly how it should be done.

Rider cannot consistently perform these tasks.

Thanks for the insight. Multiple riders were used for this testing.
