Who makes All Tracks? Never heard of 'em


Bighorns have gotten very popular in the last 6 months....

From what I see these are 2 ply. Not good for rocks.

2 ply no es bueno.

I also see those tires are small...largest one is 25/8 and 25/10. They look more like Sport tires...


You want 6 ply sidwall.

They were the tire of choice for GNCC racing until the Bighorn came about, so they must be pretty tough.

I don't know if it is a choice?
But if you sponsor with free tires, rims, and more money than the other company you to could be the number one choice.

and thats racing....on a track....not dealing with rocks, sharp sticks...glass...etc.

2 ply is not recommended for utility riding....

I guess larger than 25" is recomended for rocks? I figured sitting lower would be a plus on off camber situations..... :?

25 is fine.....but pure rock crawling, is about clearance.

The camber and balance part, is all about the "line".

Most of us run 26" and 27".


A 2" lift with 27" probably wouldn't be a great idea...unless you added spacers for stability...

but then you start defeating the purpose of the narrowness and manueverability of the ATV.
