Gators vs Mudlites
I absolutely LOVE my Swamp Lites. If they can push my little 250cc atv through a watery clay filled swamp with only 2x4, they would work amazing on a 4x4. Just make sure you buy a 26" tall Swamp Lite at least...the 25" Swamp Lites only have a 3/4" deep lug, when my 22" have a 1" deep lug. The Swamp Lites seem to grab well on all terrains, and if they clog up with mud, give the throttle a tap and they will spin the mud right off of them. They wear pretty well too. I cant give you a milage figure but I've had mine since last June and have driven just about everyday since I got them. I also take a spin or two around my neighborhood after I come out of the woods, but that's a bad habbit, I gotta stop that. Other than that, they do tend to dig ruts fast, so if you're stuck, you're stuck. Don't keep hitting the throttle trying to make your ATV go anywhere, because with the size ruts I have diggin, it's hard to drive throught them anymore. As long as you have 4x4 though, you won't get stuck very often, I guarentee that. They have a smooth ride but can become a bit wobbly on the road, unless you have the tire balanced. Although they have more than enough traction, with a push of the throttle, you can still break open the rearend and drift...=) They are able to climb over logs fairly easily and I've had no problem with climbing over rocks. Water crossings are a breeze, as are hard packed trails. Hope this helps!
