Which tires to you think will go better on a 400 EX in the snow?

OEM Radials
Maxxis Razr's
ITP Holeshots

Or any other tire that has a similar tread that you can think of.

Thanks all

oem is the best by far...

itp holeshots suck bc they don't clean the tread and they become slicks... its horrible in the snow even with studs!!!

How do you get studded tires for an ATV? Does some company sell them? Or do you have to make them up yourself?

the way thatyou get yourself some studded tires is by buying a box of ice screws, a case of beer and then invite your buddies over for a good old night of screwing ice screws into thetire. you will want to put them on top of the treads. a rechargeable hand drill worked good for me :devil they think i havea drinking problem

I have the new MAXXIS 4-SNOW tires. The tread are similar to the PRO EDGE but it cost cheaper.

Excellent grip on snow and for grass drag...

Ice screws.......hmmm....... I want to run on hardpack snow.....so I want studs no matter what. Do you have to tube the tire?
