Well don't worrie about power.My uncle had a 93 canadian model like you have and he had enough power with his 26x11x11 Bi-Claws to pull an Isuzu truck in a pull off, but don't get Bi claws. IN the size you need they ride like a bulldozer on this bike. If those tires are your only choices I would personally go with the Kenda's. Ply rating is just a rating, not a real thickness test. Vamps are rated at 4 ply, but with NO psi in them they are so stiff you can't tell you have a flat normally. It all depends on the tire compounds realy. I say go with 25/26" Kenda's. I would stay with the same size all around(like 9" all around or 12" all around) cause your wheels are the same width front to rear and mounting a larger rear tire will make it taller than the fronts.

Well they will not fit on his 11" wheels since they only come in 12" wheel sizes.

HAve you looked at the Titan 589's. My buddy has a set on his 450s. They seem to be great all around tire. matty

I also posted this message on the Honda Forum, but I know some people here know a great deal about tires...so I would like your input also. As the subject states, I am looking for a replacement tire for my old Honda 350 4x4. The original size is 24x9x11 but I expect the 350 has enough power to turn a 25 inch also. Mainly used for hunting, which includes travelling through mud and snow, and for pulling moose and game out. Locally I can get GBC Dirt Devils, Kenda Bearclaws, and Titan 489's for all about the same price. The Dirt Devils are supposedly 6 ply, but the Kenda Bearclaws appear to be stiffer and harder and they are only 4 ply. Any thoughts on these tires? Your replies would be appreciated.
