    Sportmans and snow plowing

    I'm looking to plow my paved driveway with a 2000 Sportsman this winter and I'm curious as to what you guys and gals are running for snow tires. I do have a set of V-bar chains if need be (worked great on my 2WD Warrior).

    plow

    I have the stock Goodyears on my 700. I had a 99 500 and an 01 500 (all sportsmans) and all stock tires and they plow great. I've never needed a snowblower or had to shovel. It would take a lot of snow to not be able to clear it with your sportsman with even stock tires on it.

    I ended up going with a New Yamaha Big bear 400 with the IRS. I installed a Moose 60" blade using the winch to lift it. The bike comes with ITP mudlites and I have a set of chains just in case I need them.

    Thread is here.

    well if you live in a place that gets a lot of snow every storm than you may want to go with the executionar tires or the bear claws from rockymountainatv.com

    but if you dont get pounded with snow a lot then it would be best to stick with stock.

    are you plowing with a winch or a lift kit?
