How about Quadboss QBT446 and QBT846
The QBT446 visually looks like a good replacement for the BH2. In the 27x11-14 size, it is smaller in outside diameter, by nearly an inch, with the BH2 being over 27, and the 446 being under.
The BWEvo's are very rounded (cross-section) for a rear tire, and tend to be big on the O.D. (the 27x11-14 size), but their OD seems extremely sensitive to air pressure.

BWEvo - BH2 - QBT446 all 27x11-14:

I'm currently running 27x11 BWEv's in front, and 28x11 BWEv's in the rear (the 28" is 3/4" wider than the 27") and very pleased with them in loose and wet stuff, and not annoyed with them on hardpack and pavement.

Watch the load ratings carefully, I've seen wide variations for different sizes within a particular model.

I wish sooo much I had went with the 8 ply Terrabites instead of the 6 ply Bighorns. Less expensive too.

EDIT... I meant to say Trilobites not Terrabites, Sorry for the confusion.
I have run both. Currently have the Terabites and they are very smooth and track very well. The original Bighorns are better in the mud and have a much better side bite.

I don't have a lot of experience with different tires, but I couldn't be any happier than I am now with the Maxxis Carnivores! I had a much heavier and less aggressive tire before. Coming to the Carnivores I dropped a ton of weight and got more aggressive. They seem to be tough as hell too.

I’ve enjoyed my roctanes. I have gone through quite a few tires. I tend to bust holes in all of them. The shale rock around here is like knives. My roctanes are without holes currently and almost a year old. (Knock on wood). They are heavy, but I’ve been good with them. 30x10/14

One of the most impressive long lasting tires I’ve ever owned. There name is perfect as they Rip and Saw through almost anything. I have cut trails on my foreman when others couldn’t! So they deserve to be on the list!

Really need a NE, NW, SE, SW poll. The Roctane has been the most impressive on the trail in the list to me for SE riding.

I've had no complaints with the 846. They definitely benefit from lower tire pressure and a narrower wheel in soft terrain but they are tough on rocks and have plenty of traction
What I should have said, i suppose, is: if the Trilobite and Terrabite get separate entries, why not the 446 and 846?

How would the poll results look if price was not a factor---would Carnivores edge out Terrabites?

Good question, not sure.

I’d rather have the Carnivores I think but I’ve never owned them. Maybe after I run some for a year I’ll change my mind. Not sure.
