jsills, the mud lites are very aggressive and wear very well, a friend has some on his sp 500 ho, not the tire for blacktop use, if you go larger than stock you could notice a loss in power and additional wear on your drivetrain. just my 0.02$. ride on bro.

When I had a Kodiak 450 I went with 26" Swamplites (I now have them on my Rubicon). I gained 1" plus of ground clearance plus they are a good mud tire but not the MOST aggressive. They worked well and didn't steal much power. Hope this helps. Check them out at http://www.extremetires.com. They have other tires there too

I have a new 07 450 King Quad. I am looking for a better set of tires. I running stockers right now.
I mainly trail and mude ride. I don't get to crazy in the mud. We mainly ride in a creek.
I am looking for something that also rides well on the road, because we have to ride on the rode a bit getting in and out of the trail.
I am not sure if I want to step up to 26's or stay and 25's.
I was thinking about the following tires.
Maxxis Mud bugs
Kenda Bounty Hunters
ITP mud lites
Any other recommendations would be great.

i would recommend keeping your torque by staying with the stock size. I put on a pair of superlites from supergrip and happy so far (just a few weeks)...they are almost identical as mudlites - but have a tougher rubber compound and a rim guard. You may want to try out the bear claws - been around awhile and proven tough. if your looking for more height in the stock size - check out the swamplite (not sure how they wear?). if you want to see specs on the superlites...check out my post in the tire section
