The closer I look everything over the more impressed I am with the design. Typical Honda engineering I used to wrench on them in the mid 80-s when I raced the ATC 200X & ATC250-R they were far more basic machines but still for the punishments dished on them I was as impressed then 30 years ago as I am today. Technology has come a long way but smart design by Honda still remains true. I haven't been out of the yard yet but I will by next weekend. Haven't had a full day off in 3 weeks even yesterday when I picked up the P5 I worked until Noon. I am biding my time (impatiently) to giver a run for the money.

So i finally got a chance to push the bulldog with the new tires today we did 80 miles and this is the hardest you can push the p5 so dead honest review of the ripsaws i held her to the floor shifting like i was driving and indy car so belive me this is a true honest review not bias in any way......... so to start these tires i have found to be bomb proof i mean nuclear i went over rocks sections paper shreddeds would be jealous of second they THROW mud rocks and whatever else they can grab lol today my ride has never been muddier they really shovel and ive read reviews saying they dont clean out good lol im calling complete bulls*** i went through solid clay creeks and tossed clay like snowballs third they GRIP when crawling over larger obstacles like glue like wow good 4th they back the crappy p5 suspention seem sooooo much better at 10 psi......... ok now the bad at speed the front tires push really bad because the backs grab so good second they are crazy heavy tires because they are so tough today ive notice a really bad decrease in power in some spots where stock i didnt have to down shift or maybe once today once or twice but there is a big drop off in power in 3 4 5 gear but with that said its totally worth the trade off in traction in places id slowly churn in 4x4 to get through the ripsaw laughed at in 2wd so def no regrets there the p5 is a bulldog not a grayhound anyways and last dude you get covered in mud like covered bad ill post a few picks in a bit but ive never been this muddy riding the p5 before but i guess its notnsuch a bad thing well in conclusion i do not regret the buy and i plan on buying the 25s for my rancher the drop in top end power is totally worth the low end earth eating grunt these tires give like i said they are bomb proof so you dont have to worry about flats and i am just completely amazed at the performance of these tires

OMG! You aren't kidding. I just loaded mine in the truck and good thing my back is feeling better or forget it. Pulled the factory tire and wheels and what a difference

It could just be the psi im running but say your are going down a dirt / gravel road arond 30+mph when u turn the wheel it still pushes straight not really a big problem as soon as u let off the gas they grip and turn. Kinda hard to explain

I'm glad u like the ripsaws jak9922. I have around 800 plus miles on mine & I agree with u. I have a bad back & hips so my friend with the same tire talk me into lowering them down to 4 lbs man what a difference in the ride no noticeable change in grip even in mud. Just a suggestion. U can always air them up if u don't like it. He runs a pound & half on his grizzly. He has 2000 miles on his.

I haven't noticed the front wheels "pushing" that badly. Do you think that it's because they are the same width as the rears? I have ran some pretty loose trails at 25-35mph, and have always been impressed with the handling. It is much easier steering than any ATV that I've ever owned. I had limited experience with the stock tires, as I replaced them with the Ripsaws before my first 20 miles, but it seems to me that they improved every aspect of handling. Maybe running the same size all around has another benefit?

P500fan it very well could be
