Looking to put snows on my 2006 400ex.....Like the Maxxis 4Snow M910. My quad has 9 rear and 10 front....Maxxis only make 8 ad 9.
What setup do you use up front...
Also looking for a good ice setup with studs, front and back....
Thanks for the help

Keep your stock front tires. You only need the snow tires on the rear.

paddle tires work really well but you have to keep the front tires from sinking, so i just put the skis on!

Hi, I have a set of "spider tracs" that I always liked. Had them on my 200X 3 wheeler years ago. Bought a tire/rim set for my 350X for the winter, lucky me, a 400EX rear hub pattern is the same. They seem to work good for me in the snow. Of course, after 6 or so inches, everyone knows(or learned the hard way) that 2 wheel drive atv's don't go so well in the snow. Anyways, I like my spider tracs for the snow on my 400EX. They are 22" tall, so I do notice a little extra pull on the clutch and motor compared to my 20" Razrs I run in the warmer weather.

4 snows are a type of paddle tire. 4 snows are the best snow tire out. For the front I would get big sand tires cause they would float good and steer good too.
