Sweet,
So it did well in the snow? I bet it was fun with the paddle sifters being able to control if fully.

We had around 15" of snow and the P500 handled it with ease. Lots of steep climbs out here and it had no trouble on any of them.

It handled 15"s of snow? Wow...that's encouraging.

Hopefully I will have mine before month end!

13 to 15 inches of heavy, wet snowfall here on the farm. No power for two days. Trails ranging from 2500' to 4000' and the P500 made every climb. I have to give lots of credit to the 26" Bighorn tires though. They hooked up extremely well in the snow.

Any pictures of your P500 with 26" Bighorns?

Thanks. The 26's really do look like a perfect fit. You like the 2.0 in the snow? I had them on a Can-am renegade and didn't mind them, but I didn't think they were stellar in the snow. I liked the originals more so in the snow. My favorite snow tire is an ITP ATR. Only problem with those, is that you look at them the wrong way and they'll get a pinch flat. HAHA I also ran Pitbull Rockers (25.5) on my Brute Force and they were honestly quite amazing. Only problem with those was a wobble at speeds due to the lugs. I could feel it through the power steering on my Brute even.

you got a wobble with the pitbull rockers thats odd you must have a bad tire cause i have a set of rockers and a set of growlers and both sets are as smooth as car tires mike at pitbull will replace the tires no problem

That's good to know. I've since sold my Brute with those tires. That makes me even more likely now to use them again. What do you like better? The growlers or rockers? The rockers really surprised me in the snow.
