Yes the Big Horns is a good all around tire. Everyonethat I know that has them love them. I wonder if the many knoll off Big Horns perform as well as the real ones. I know they are less expensive.

I have zillas on my Rincon and am happy with them. They ride pretty smooth on the trail and dig good in the mud. Pretty good priced. I have 2,000 miles on and they still have great tread left. They do run almost an inch short in height.

I got Zillas too, although I haven't had them more than 6 months yet. So far I can say they are great for trail riding, AWESOME for making new trails (cause they dig so much), and I have had mine in some deep stuff where I found out they seem to hook up better than my old ITP 589's. The only bad I have to say about them is they chew up my grass and they are not puncture proof! I got about 5 plugs in 2 holes in both my back tires. They don't seem to like railroad spikes a whole bunch. LOL!!! BAH HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! The price is definately right on these tires and so far I'm not disapointed, they seem to work realy good. I give them 1.5 thumbs up out of 2. Only cause I got plugs in them already, but railroad spikes do have a habit of putting holes in tires. LOL!!

i have a set of the BH knock offs. mine are the Duro PowerGrips. i now have about 3000 miles on them and they still have about 3/4" of tread left. i have only 1 plug in one tire and it was from my sisters ox of a dog biting them. i have had these tires all over Tri-County, SSRT, Rock Run, Majestic trails, Rockhouse, Bearwallow, Indian Ridge, Pinnacle Creek, the outlaw trails in WV and just this week, ANF. i am VERY happy with these tires. my only complaint is that they are only available in 25" for 12" wheels. they are still a 6 ply and a radial. i will definitely buy another set when i wear these out!

Check out GBC Grim Reaper tires, nice! I second this. I used to run Big Horns, great tire, you can't go wrong. Tried a set of these Grim Reapers on my Sportsman XP and I've found my new go to tire! Worth a look!

WHILE HE'S DOWN AT HATFEILD RIGHT NOW I CAN GET AWAY WITH THIS ( HE DON'T LIKE GETTING DIRTY OR WET!!! )  ANYHOW IF YOU WANT A NASTY TIRE THAT RIPS ANYTHING APART THE SUPER GRIP MUD BITCH IS THE WAY TO GO. IF YOU HAVE FILLINGS IN YOUR MOUTH YOU WON'T AFTER RIDING ON A HARD TRAIL!!!
