Big Horn 1 or 2?

I knew it was only a matter of time before the Bighorn bashing started. I think you could puncture just about anything on that Rzr Gump.

Your always gonna have some who like it and some who dont, ive been riding my whole life 30+ yrs and never went threw 7 tires in under 12 months. Thats all im saying. Side walls on these bighorns are weak and i tore a lug completly off the tire. A lug! 1.5" x 5" hole thats not normal haha.

Not Bashing Just my opinion. I would rank them with the top tires. And I'm not sure I can yet say that about what my quad is sitting on.

I used to hear my Dad sometimes say, "They could tear up an anvil."

~~~

Like the looks of the couple 8 ply tires that are out for the UTV's also.

This is some good conversation! Thanks everyone and keep it coming.

I'm months away from spending any money!!

It was a great trip but I bent and front a-arm, ripped the driver side rear plastic off and tore a CV boot.

oh everyones got jokes huh lol. got the a-arm from ups a couple days ago just got to get it put on. I only have one trip with the big horns but so far I like them. From what I have heard the Big Horns are better then Big Horn 2. Big horn 2 are lighter but are subject to more sidewall damage.

I know a lot of guys have went from BHs to Grimm Reapers on the RZRs. I think thats what I'm going to put on the RZR next just to try. I know in the slick mud they don't steer worth a crap on the RZRs. Never had any problems or even any plugs Yet with my BHs and I have never been easy on them. Everyone knows that.

My questions have been answered concerning BH tires. Thanks! If Big Horn, 1.0 wins over version 2. Gotta like the white letters anyway! Now let me see what I want to compare them to. Again, thanks for the honest replies.

another flat tire with my big ones this weekend what is the weekend of riding without a flat

I wonder if anyone has tried tire foam in their ATV/UTV tires. NOT the slime-type stuff, but what they put in farm tires.

Seems like it might work.

NEVERMIND:

Can I foam fill an ATV tire?
"No, it is not recommended because
of the weight and handling characteristics."

Discount Tire Direct has the 1.0's - factory sizes 25/8/12 & 25/10/12 for $410.00 to my house. This seems like a good deal. Is it? In the $530 range @ 4atvtires.

I've got:

$410 @ RMATV.com

$410 @ motosport.com

$420 @ ATVoutfitters.com
(Matt will usually try and beat or match anyone - also in N.C. Lee)

All prices are 25 inchers shipped

I'd say your in the ballpark anyhow...

If you want i will sell tou my 14" itp ss 108 and 26" bighorns for 400$

I've to write down those sites. Thanks Greg.

I'm worried about offsets and such on rims gump. I don't want to be any wider, narrower wouldn't hurt though. I have 12 wides on the back now and they scrub both the fuel tank basket and the muffler. Not enough for real concern but it's still on my mind when I ride.

With trailer and tires on the market I wonder what you are up to. Not giving up are you?

Not giving up!

That's good to read gump. Hate to think I'd never get the chance to meet ya!

I received my new set of stock size BH 1.0's today. They really do look bigger than 25". I should have them mounted in time for a local test ride Sunday. No rocks but plenty of muck, roots, and other woodsie debris. I do believe there's even a hill back in there somewhere. I think it's made out of sand...

Raised white letter tires on a 4 wheeler. I'm liable to get laughed at!

I'll let you know how it goes.

Good luck i have a set of pitbull rockers sitting in the garage. They are a wicked looking tire.8 ply as well. There a friends and i may have to get a set when my next bighorn explodes lol. Im sure you will be fine, since you know accordibg to some "im rough and hard on my machine" ???

LOL. There has to be people out there that can break an anvil! I looked at those pitbull tires too. WAY TO EXPENSIVE for poor 'ole Lee. They did look nice though.

I've seen some people leave the white letters turned in...

Have fun on the test ride.

I gotta turn the letters out. It's just the Redneck / South of the Mason Dixon Line thing to do!

It is done. I have 7 psi in them. Is that about right?

Looking good Lee. Now just scrub the blue off the letters.




I run about 5.5-6 psi in mine.

So when u going to Mtn. Top?
