Anyone seen or tried these yet. They are radial and only available in 25" sizes right now, but they look just like Bighorns only about $100 less for a set of 4. You can get all 4 delivered to you door for less than $280! I may have to point Santa here and try some out but I just thought I'd see if anyone had seen them!

Price down to $251.96 right now shipped to your door!!!

Not to be the pessimist but the Big Horns are known to last and last and last.

There are some items in this world that the phrase "You get what you pay for" really comes into play.

Knock offs or copys are fine if they last and perform as good or better then the first.

I myself will stick with Bighorns and Maxxis as they are a proven company that stands behind their product and that to me means something more then saving a few bucks.

Just my .02

I agree with you Cat.... Getting caught with a flat on the trail 40 miles from civilization is not worth a few dollars to me.... Bighorns all the way for me on the trail....

Well said VOO, The Horns are known for their resistance towards punctures. Not to mention their smooth ride and ability to grip on many levels of terrain.
And with that kind of profound knowledge those with Horns appreciate them and are willing to spend the extra $$.

I am curious to hear what LaMigra has to say about the Terra cross horn lookalikes that he bought.

If I know one thing La will say it like it is and won't pull any punches.

Well, I guess I'm just cheap, but after reading several reviews on other forums, I just ordered my Duro Powergrips from Rocky Mountain ATV. So, I'll be able to review these in a couple weeks after I receive them and get them mounted. Only $72 less than the Bighorns and the only difference visible is the raised white letters that I couldn't care about anyway, so we'll see soon.

Rockbanger, my raised white letters are mounted to the inside so you can't see the letters.

Congrats on the new tire Rockbanger.

I hope that you will put together a ride review for us once you put some miles on them.

I hope they serve you well and provide what you are looking for in a tire.

the duro is an 8-12 and 10-12 tire, would rather have the sizes of the bighorn or dirt tamer...also the price searching the web seems to be about the same as the bighorn and also the edges on the duro don't look like they give as much side traction as either the bighorns or dirt tamers...

i ran dirt tamers on my polaris's, i can attest to their durability, i put 2000 miles on a set and they still were probably 85-90% of their tread...

Bighorn's only come in those exact sizes in the 25s also, so I don't have a clue what you're trying to say about something being different in the sizes! Bighorns do come in 26s and 27s that these don't, but I wasn't wanting 26's or 27s, so that is not an issue either for me.

If the truth was known, they're probably made the same place by the same people with the exact materials and only the names changed with a lower price to enhance their bottom line!

I just put 25" BH's on my 500. Went through a local dealer. $325.00 shipped and mounted. The best deals are seldom on the web sites.

Just a suggestion for those that are buying a new quad and tires at the same time.

Ask your dealer to swap out the stock tires for whatever tire you want.

We did and it cost us $200 for the swap and mounting, not bad for $50 a tire.
