Like everyone else, I dont like the way my AC650 handles with the factory MTR tires. Well, the front anyway. The back is fine.

I am considering Mudlites but was wondering if I can just change the front and leave the back tires as they are. What about mixing bias and radials on an ATV? I know it is a bad idea for cars but didn't know if it really made a difference on an ATV. I will change them all if necessary but those fronts got to go.

It shouldn't be a problem mixing, two different tread patterns looks goofy though. I bought a set of 26" mudlites from Here they had the cheapest price I found, give them a call and ask for Stan.

You'll find that the rears are rolling under, just like the fronts. It's best just to replace all 4. You won't be sorry.
