I have 30 inch interco interforce they are great in soft mud & clay just got back from muddy bottoms & had very little trouble going through everything

[@stgraves260]

I got some System3XT 300s and all I can say is WoW!!! I hope they don’t get rid of them. They plow threw everything. Mud, rock, sand, dirt, gravel. I tell people if you can not make up your mind on what kind of tire to get then get you some XT300s.

[@mathewpomietlasz9870]

I had a set of it mega mayhem on my last atv and will be buying another set for my sxs.

[@minnesotaxmr]

For trail riding I got the ITP Cryptid 30x10, rock and roll just big mud, I got the EFX MOTO HAVOK. The Crytids run great in the snow too, I haven't run the Havok in snow yet. Thanks for the info. I couldn't agree more with your comments. As always, "Ride Hard and Be Safe" MN Bill

[@BPatches701]

Itp caught my eye because of the sipes, you can make the biggest paddles in the world and it wouldn't compare to a tire with sipes in ice and snow.

[@VicToR_Rider]

What are u riding ur 30x10 cyptid on? I have a renegade 1000xmr and would like to buy true 30s but the 30x9 are not true 30s. So I'm thinking about the 30x10. Will I lose or gain anything with them?

[@minnesotaxmr]

@@VicToR_Rider On my Can AM XMR-850. But I have the QSC/STM clutch combo. But on stock clutches, The 30/10s and the 30/9 (28/9) stock, the only difference was more ground clearance and some floatation. It wheelied the same too. I do a couple of mud events a year and the 31 inch Havoks are a lot of fun.

[@VicToR_Rider]

@Minnesota XMR thanks for the response appreciate it.

[@brandonheaton8860]

I've got the ITP Cryptids on my 850. Absolutely love them!

[@TwinTurboToyota]

[@brandonheaton8860]

They have a pretty smooth ride on hard packed trails.

[@priceb2466]

Always awesome content im really liking the system 3 think im eventually going to those

[@priceb2466]

Would you go back with the 310’s ?i have the 600 single seat with clutch kit ?

[@RealTalkPowersports]

I would.. I like them.. only if I was going to mud ride more than 65% of the time. Either those or the cryptids.

[@BlackJackKO551]

Just picked up a set of 30" Zilla's for my Z950. I was worried about them being too soft but this video has relieved some of my worries

[@vlo9079]

Excellent video. It confirmed my thoughts on the BKTs vs the Havocs. The check mark on the Havocs makes the difference in reverse as well as ride smoothness. Thank you for posting this!

[@RealTalkPowersports]

No problem bro

[@cheddarballs864]

The havoks suck at cleaning out vs the bkts. My muv700 big red sxs with 30 inch bkts goes through more mud than my bnls pioneer 1000 with 4 inch portals and 33 motohavoks

[@lennyray42]

Would be interesting to compare the SATV terminator style tires against each other like those Mud Evils, BKT BogMax n Quadboss’s version. I’m liking that style but don’t know which to go with…

i have 28 inch outback maxs on my scrambler, traction is excellent in mud, ride smooth on hard pack, but the hard rubber compound makes it rough in the bumps and there heavy

[@fredbakken7856]

Good job Real Talk! A standard test for the vehicles and tires you review could be interesting I think. E.g. a sled or object dragged through your favorite mud hole or sand pit scored for time and distance maybe?

[@RealTalkPowersports]

Yes very good idea. Would take some filming over time to put it all together.. I definitely can't afford to buy a bunch of tires to test on one machine. But I could start my own baseline test for everything and build stats over time to compare to

[@bartekuszko1352]

You think that cryptids 28/10/14 will be good for polaris 570 2 inch lifted ?

[@robertsanborn1056]

Do you need a clutch kit for these tires?

[@atvsteve2021]

i run the outbacks on my highlifter lot of photoage on my channel to watch great tire. good float to dig. rides good in sand and water hard pack and roads alittle ruff but not bad

[@shaggy8627]

I currently run 32 kryptids on my 19 talon but looking for a lighter tire as they are heavy if they were lighter would definitely keep them. But overall i love them in the mud.

[@jameschaplin8975]

Azteks are pretty light and a decent pulling tire from what I've heard

[@johnbirch6795]

I see the Zilla has both 0.75" and 1.2" depth tread - I have a Cforce 600 touring, can it handle the 1.2" tires? We have fun in a lot of mud holes so the extra tread depth would help, but what are they like on hardpack, rocks, and a little bit of road riding? Thanks, John

I got Zillas 28x14 on my Renny xxc 1000. Through mud the best tyre there is. But a bit sloppy on xc trails. I have a question: have You tried putting different tires on front and back? Eg. front cryptids, rear executioners? Any suggestions, recommendations? Looking fwd to hear from You!

[@veeDubbinit2]

I really like the Zilla’s too. Perfect match with my Grizzly.

I have mud lites that work well on an older outlander 400. I was considering mud lite xtr. Anyone with any experience with the Xtr’s?

[@bryandunn4886]

Mega Mayhams ain't to bad if you can get them for a good price. All around is pretty good, it slips enough so they don't grab and tear something up or throw you back. I'm impressed the hills I climb on mine yet good enough for some what deep mud. Wear good on hard surfaces. Seems like they get better as they wear down. Do run at least a 1 inch small in size

Most of my riding is desert hard pack sand/dirt roads, mountain trails, and some hard bottom river crossings up to the floorboards. My trail tires do great. I recently went to a big sand dune event. The trail tires just didn't cut it. Thinking of an extra set of paddle tires, but.. I wonder if some of these mud tires could accomplish what a paddle tire could 🤔

[@denseleit]

Of those tires you just went over... Which one would you use if you were mud riding and a fair bit of rocky climbing too?? I find we're chewing up treads a lot on the rocks.

[@RealTalkPowersports]

out of the options in the video I would have to go with the XT 400 to handle a Little Rocky terrain

[@Slane583]

When I look at mud tires online one of the models that always catches my eye are the Interco Black Mamba Lites. Would you happen to know if someone you know might have ran some? I remember when the original Black Mamba's came out they were known as the "Axle Killer" because of how heavy they were. They were breaking axels on large cc atv's as well as utv's. So I'm curious as to how much lighter the "lite" version is. That and I've also been eyeing a possible set of Sedona Buck Snort's to try them out. I really like the "pickup truck" style knobs with the deer hoof pattern in the middle. :)

[@RealTalkPowersports]

I havent tried those nor have I seen anyone run them personally.. They'd be worth a shot though. They look cool anyways.

[@reidharris1059]

@@RealTalkPowersports I’ve heard they’re the best pulling mud tire on the market if u have the power and gearing to turn then

[@stoondude245]

I have 27" Black Mamba Lites on my stock 2019 Grizzly 700. Works good, wouldn't say they are great at anything. Good all round tire. Similar performance as my Zillas. My 2022 Sportsman 570 Trail with stock Duros outperforms the Grizzly with BML's in snow.

[@kooskoos8181]

What wud u recommend just for hunting on over grown bush trails that vehicles cannot go down only for the most part???? ITP mud lites or....??? We never plan on going mudding but if we have to cross sketchy stuff we will. A recommendation would be appreciated.

[@beaverATVriding]

Mud lites should work in any terrain but if it is just for hunting I would suggest looking into trail tires as they can still get through decent mud

Thanks, Steve

Steve i don't think the Cryptids would be the best for you on that type of terrain. I would go with the Sti Rocktanes or something similar.. I know the Rocktanes are 9.5 inches wide but if your mounting them on your stock wheels, im almost certain they will still fit on your trailer

[@dizzlerizzle2775]

also the 28 megas are a little nicer than the 30" monster , the monsters have a taller lug but weigh about the same because have like 2 or 3 less lugs, the 28"s got alot of lugs and alot better for big hill climbs and getting over trees.

[@jdog1331]

I have 28” mega mayhems as well as my friends. They work great for the mud, as they were intended, but they also work great on hard pack trails. They do ride slightly tougher at low low speeds but your suspension absorbs 95% of it so you can hardly feel it.

[@jdog1331]

I have a Sportsman 570 and it spins them in thicker mud pretty easily. My friends have Outlader 650s and they have 0 problem spinning them in just about anything. I believe they would be just fine of like a rancher 420 as well as they are pretty light compared to most tires
