P1000 Tusk Terrabite 8 ply vs Tusk Terrabite Aramid 10 ply (UPDATE)

[sek-hunter]

I’m gonna order a set of these tonight or tomorrow. Th Arimid 10 ply is only $5 per tire more than the 8 ply.

Any reason not to go with it? Does it ride rougher?

You may want to consider the weight of the tires.

 

[sek-hunter]

Seems I read somewhere the weights were so close that the difference was insignificant?

If the Aramid are the Kevlar ones, just get the 8-ply and spend the extra bucks on beer.

I think @Hondasxs had had several pinch flats with the Kevlar / Aramid tires. Maybe he can chime in if he would do the same again.

That's what I was thinking but wasn't sure if the Aramid were the Kevlar

What's the reasoning for narrower tires on front ? Easier turning/pushing thru mud...... Mine does not have power steering

Well, I went with the 8 ply. 28’s all around with these System 3 wheels and one inch spacers in the rear.



The bronze sort of reminds me of the gold Honda wheels of the 80’s. I think it’ll look good with the red and grey on the LE. We shall see next week!

Stay out of deep thick mud. I ran Terabites for the last 4 or so years. They track great, ride smooth and wear very good. But they suck in mud and don't have the greatest side bite. Not saying they are bad tires. I actually really like them but like I said not a good mud tire.

 

[sek-hunter]

Yeah, I figured they were lacking in the mud. I try to stay out of it when I can. Sometimes you can't avoid it. I had Blackwater Evo's on my last Pioneer. They did pretty good everywhere I ride. I was looking for something a little smoother on the hard stuff. What tire did you go to @Choogsbro?

Placed my order less than 24 hours ago and they are laying on the carport. I love ordering from RMATV.

I ordered my wheels and tires 3 weeks ago from RMATV. 2 weeks after my order I received 2 mounted tires, the next day I received the other 2 mounted tires, the next day I received my new lugnuts.

I hope these swell up some. 28’s measure 25 7/8” unmounted. Ive read they run small. Hope to get 27-27.5 out of em at least.

Keep us posted.. that is the tire I'm looking at in the future, but I want to make sure I get a tire that is close to 28"

[Choogsbro]

My new 28 carnivores are 28+ at 14psi and on the machine.

If you don't do much mud they are awesome.
