Title: ITP 589 vs Maxxis Mudzillas Post by: IXIswamperIXI on January 14, 2009, 02:49:02 PM I am wondering if anyone on here has an opinion of these two tires. Of coarse I am just talking about how they went in the mud. My brother has brand new set of Maxxis Mudzillas and ITP rims which are to big for his Honda. So I was thinking about trading my 589s for his Mudzillas on my RZR. So what do you guys think?

I would not buy these tires new but, i would trade for them... what size are they?

I don't think there would be a problem turning them with the 800 but it might be hard on a stock clutch.

A 800 will turn them np and clutch kits arent bad but only a 27 shouldnt be bad. My dads had 27s on his polaris and he can spin his mud tires like 6k rpms in mud no problem.

Sorry it took so long I just had one of my employees walk out on me :( Anyway, it is just a trade and possibly some money. Thats crazy that they could bog down a 660. I think for all around I might stay with the 589 :)

I never had a problem with the stock clutch either. With independant suspension you won't notice much of a bumpy ride at all. Only below 5 mph. Do the deal.
