Just had my first ride on my new 26"x12" XTRs last night. Got the T7 12" cast wheels with 26" Mudlite XTRs.
I was very impressed with these. They handle very nice with light steering effort and good tracking. Haven't had a chance yet to do any serious mud bogging....but with the huge lugs I'm certain they'll do well. The thing that really impressed me was how well they handle. I'm a happy camper.

How tall are the 25" xtr's? I want them on my grizz but I want to keep the tire height as close to stock as I can.
Are they heavy? I don't want to lose any of the bottom end power.
Thanx dudes

Has anyone put 25 inch itp xtr's on their factor rims on a 450 Kodiak and what do you think of them?
Also what is the best price anyone has found on them?

I have the DU Wetlands on my '05 Kodiak, they are a forerunner of the xtr. The xtr has a slightly different tread (a little ridge of rubber between the lugs) but both are the same design and construction. I can say I really like the tire, they handle better with less tire sidewall rollover, and perform in the mud better. I have about 1000 miles on a set and have done quite a bit of road riding but have held up well. I have the 25's and I paid $300 for the set from Motorcycle Superstore with free shipping.

The xtr's are nearly identical in height to stock tires. The weight of the tires are a little more than stock but I think the perfromance of the radials far out weigh the the difference in a couple of pounds. I noticed no difference from stock to my Wetlands in performance of my Kodiak. With the more powerful Grizz you should not notice any difference.

I put 25's on my Kodiak (stock rims). They are a excellent tire, and seem to be wearing very well. I gave $370.00 for all four, through a local tire shop.
