I am about due for a new set of tires for my 2014 XP1000 and was thinking about going with the 31' BFG MUD Terrains. i know these will come with added weight, not sure how much and was hoping someone could let me know how these tires perform on the Razor, Going to use Method 15 bead lock wheels. Any help or suggestions much appreciated.

You'll loose power for sure. Top speed will increase due to more roll out
The manager at Discount Tire was telling me these were voted the number one tire for years. Not sure by who. I had them on my truck and now have the Toyo mud terrain which aren't nearly as good in my opinion. I would assume they would last longer on a RZR than a truck. I'll probably upgrade to these.

I had them on my Jeep, they were great for about 20k miles and then got do loud I couldn't have a normal conversation with my wife.
That said, the tire looks flippin awesome on the Methods. Looks like I may be replacing my mongrels. Damn that looks Good!!!!!

I should add that I did have to use 1" bolts, (the methods came with 7/8"). But I measured and checked multiple times, the 1" is the perfect bolt for this setup since the bead on the tire is so damn thick lol

I've got around 500 miles on mine. love them so far. I lost power. but retuned on my clutching and still outrun a stock bike. rode a bunch in the snow this weekend. made it up every hill climb my buddy did with bighorns. wet mud they need a little wheel speed to clean but that was expected. hard pack or gravel is second to none. they don't drift. they just stick and rail turns.

Slippery on slick streets has been my experiences but a great off road tire.
Ya gotta roll with something better than stock.
Last group run to the Slash X just the slightest twig was popping the stock tires.
Walk out of the restaurant and the parking lot seem to always have some one with blown out stock tires too.
Can't run stockers for long, trip killers. You'll eventually regret it.

Interesting on degree of success/fail rate of the stock bighorns--
I have 4700 hard desert/mtn miles on my fronts with not a flat. I just got new rears after worn with 4500 miles and finally hit a big rock at 40 mph and tacoed a rim, killed the tire- thought about changing to a different tire since I needed tires, but had to go with the BH as I have had great luck with them!

So true.
Our stockers lasted and lasted. Super lucky for us.
I'm thinking it's the guy leading the pack who's tires get killed first.
He hits the rock or debris field ahead of us.
Anyway,, we're still surprised how easy the stock tires grenade.

I beat mine in the rocks pretty good last year with great results. These tires are super tough on such a light chassis.
Damn! Those are huge!

Ya there 33's the stock clutch was ok but never got the full power out of the motor. When I did the alba clutch I noticed a huge difference in acceleration and top end. The 33's on method bead locks are 75lbs each.

I've been running the STM setup on 31"s. It seems kinda ho hum but has crazy top end. Would I be better running a stock setup with a kit over the STMs
