What IS THE Best Mud Tire? Its NOT The Size, It's How You Use It!!

[@AmotorB]

I agree with how you scored these tires. I've owned three out of those five tires and tested the other two at one point. My favorite is the aztex mostly because it works in every muddy situation. Though I will admit, they do wear fast(exept for the 30in aztex since it has a fatter tread). The assassinators are good but their very heavy and they lose out in swamps and sand from my testing(Their also used everywhere because of the name and looks and are over rated by those who haven't tried other tires). The motohavok is good all round but has bad clean out. The XM310 is just good. Though I do trail ride in the hills a lot in-between holes so they don't work their. The outlaw 2 to me is a crappy outlaw 1 that's harder to spin and rides way worse. Even though(if you have the power to spin them) they pull a little better in the mud. Overall great video! Also a 33in aztex is true to height and can even be taller than 33ins

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

They funny thing is, many people just pick a tire because thats what their buddies use. It takes trail and error. Each tire has a draw back. Aztexs still.my favorite as well

[@ChinzySpecials]

I purchased a set of mud tires off of Ostacruisers 6x6 last winter. and a 32x10x15 sxs mud tire works really really well on a truck I'd rate them 10/10. we build a mud truck out of an old Toyota landcruiser and put a hopped up sbc 350 in it and in 4x4 we haven't found anything that can stop it. it is incredible. I will be purchasing a set of 34" assasinators for a truck I'm building

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

Good to know! Be interesting to see

[@NoSend901]

I would say the OG outlaws are probably the best tires if you ride Hondas, they are very lightweight for a full on mud tire and seem to clean out very well at low speeds, they tend to float rather than dig in deep mud

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

I don't have any experience personally with them. They are hard to find in Canada

[@dariusfairchild8459]

In my opinion Aztex are a little bit better because the treat is more separated allowing them to clean even better

Thanks Cody, I try to call it like I see it.

Love this video! Very clear info, covers everything 👍🏽 Have you ever gone out with someone using the Motosslayers ?

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

Thanks, glad you found it helpful. Moto Slayers...yes I have seen them in action and they work well in mud and on trail. They seem to be a better version of the XM 310s. However if you want taller than 30s need to go to a larger wheel size.

[@Adutchmaningermany]

I bought some 30“ Cryptids for my 1000 CFMoto CForce. Now I hear different stories. „You can‘t ride those on stock bearings/ axles/ clutch etc“ and „you can ride those without problems, they just make your machine a bit slower“ Can you give some clarity? Thanks! 😊

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

ATV set up when new is based on the stock tires. Once you change tires to a bigger size and/or heavier then one thing need to adjust is clutching. Everything else you mentioned will be fine. Unless going to great big massive tires.

[@hEvtrdr]

I really want to get the 30in aztex on my rene 1000, but I need a tip because I am running on stock clutches and trail ride a lot outside of mud.

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

The 30 Aztexs will be lighter than the Stock XMR Cryptids. Clutching will be fine.

[@dnksdad]

Have to agree with the terrache being favorite. They seem to just do everything well. 🤘

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

Exactly, they are definitely getting more popular

[@yankeecanuck4448]

Love your videos brother (from Kitchener). Where did you get your front bumper? I'm shopping for one right now. Would like to be able to get your style but not from Wildboard (because I hate the board graphic lol) Cheers!

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

Glad you enjoy the videos! Its from Goodtimes Recreation In Saskatchewan

[@Preston_xmr]

I run 33inch bkts on 18 inch rims they do amazing

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

Not many people use them around here. Dont forget I was comparing tires with 14" wheel size

[@ProjectVengeance]

you know its going to be a good day when you put the assassinators on

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

Yes sir, it will never be dull!

[@Soul-xx]

I agree with this 100% I’ve had terraches for a year now and I love them great on trail good in mud. but have you seen the new outlaw max mud tires? wanted to get your opinion on them

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

Not yet! In a perfect world, might need three sets of tires!

[@tjones2914]

How do you tbink the motohavok 32x8.5x18s will do i just recently purchased the 18s and now watching the video i should've stayed with my 14s and 31 inch motohavoks

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

it all depends on what type of riding you do. The ground clearance will be nice, won't be as comfortable on rough trails. But 18s look cool 😎

[@five040]

I'm debating between 3 tires for my rzr 900... 33 in. outlaw max, 33 in. aztex, or 33 in. xm310s... I decently care about tread life, but mainly with the way I have mine set up and drive... I want to be able to have good wheel speed through holes... Which would yall recommend?

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

Aztexs are amazing. That would be my vote!

[@SCOTIAN_]

I’ve been thinking of the new EFX tires , I believe Jobe is running them . But I also should change my front diff out to a 4 lok lol

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

Those 30" EFX Motoslayers seem to work very well. I would try them if the came in a 32. The 4Lok works great, when you need it.

[@crazydomi49]

What do you think about the ITP Cryptid? I could get a set 30" brand new for 300€ (about 420CAD), currently I'm on 26" on 12" Rims... And because of that I'm always the guy thats grounded with all 4 wheels spinning free in the air. :)

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

Very good mud/trail tire. I have a video that talks all about the Cryptids. You'll just need to get some 14" wheels.

[@j-muddy93]

Personally honestly, I am a fan of the xm310’s. I have a friend that has Aztecs. The assinators are a decent tire on the trail. Been debating on switching things up because where I went last year 29” xm310’s did not match up. I really had to fight to get out of some mud holes.

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

The XM 310s work great in mud, but literally there are times you turn handle bars and keep going strait. 29's are not near tall enough...not sure what your trails are like, but we have lots of rock. On trail, Nators are ok at best. Aztexs you can trail rip as hard as you want. On a dirt road with Nators if not careful you'll end up in the ditch.

[@legowolf22]

Mr Don How would you score them for Snow (the ones you have had the chance to run in Winter)?

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

The Aztexs? They work good in the snow. In really deep snow the taller the better

Not sure, but likely 28s would be fine and add a clutch kit. Really depends on what your budget is.

[@dylanhall127]

Is the Motohavok better than the cryptids? I would go to a 31 moto havok and I will be running stock clutches… I do a little bit of everything but mainly mud

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

Much much bigger lugs than stock Cryptids. Definitely want to do some clutch work though

[@braydonmccallum807]

Can you do a review on Motoslayers?

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

I have seen them in sction a few times. Work well in mud and trail ride very well. If want bigger than 30" need larger size wheels

[@XMR_King]

Everything sounds accurate but the Assassinators are definitely better in mud than the Outlaw 2s I give the nators 5 for mud & skeg, I give the OL2s 4 & 4

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

I hear ya, but Assassinators are not a 5/5 in mud. They just aren't...

[@XMR_King]

@@ADVENTURESThisWayI can’t comment on 310’s or Azteks never had them but your rating of Azteks has me intrigued 😏 I definitely want to switch from 30 to 32s… Azteks, Aztecs, Aztex?? 🤣 where ya buy them from?

[@EC_ATV_Outdoors]

The main annoyance is definitely a lack of standards for true height. OEM rim sizes are fairly standard, yet tire sizes vary from those in width. Which between tire manufacturers making widths not in standards of ATV manufacturers OEM widths makes the tires not true height on OEM rims. Then add that even if all things are kosher, the dang tire manufacturers still make 25's that are only 24". So then you decide to get 27"s to get a little extra clearance only to find that the 27"s measure 25". It's madening when trying to choose a tire that is the height you really want. 🤬

[@ADVENTURESThisWay]

Ya its crazy. With tires, people really need to research in the real world

[@EC_ATV_Outdoors]

@@ADVENTURESThisWay absolutely. Would be great if ATV tires followed a standard like car tires.

Honestly if you want 32" tires, clutch changes are necessary. Otherwise you are losing power to the ground
