Maxxis ATV Tires

Whether it is for sport or work, all terrain vehicles (atv or quad bikes) are a common site everywhere these days. Farmers use them for checking stock or just to get about the farm. In the cities, gardeners use them to spray fertilizer and other pesticides that threaten the flowers in city parks. Life guards and police officers use them to patrol beaches in the summer and there are those that use these vehicles for cross-country racing. Many of these machines are fitted with Maxxis atv tires and it would appear that the company has a monopoly on this particular type of tire. As the vehicles are all purpose terrain vehicles their tires must be durable – able to take the pounding of rough terrain on an array of different surfaces.

 The Maxxis Razr Ballance Radial is one of the latest tires from the Maxxis atv tires series. This particular tire has been constructed on the advice and recommendations of 9-time GNCC champion, Bill Ballance. The tire’s wide radial design gives it excellent traction and durability. The surprising lightweight of the tire means that the rider is able to maintain a constant speed, even over muddy terrain. Tread patterns have been improved from earlier models and the difference is chalk and cheese. Prices vary from around $80.00 through to $120.00. The Maxxis Razr Ballance Radial is a worthy investment.

 Another popular tire from the Maxxis atv tires collection is the Mud Bug. This tire will pull your quad bike out of thick wet mud with ease. Its deep tread (similar to a tractor) has incredible traction that sheds mud with little effort. The tire has been engineered for maximum performance as well as a comfortable ride. This tire is solid with state-of-the-art technology used in its construction. The thick multi-ply sidewalls resist puncturing from the sharpness of rocks etc. Naturally, this tire is not designed for racing, but is a “working” tire and won’t let you down. Priced from around $70.00 to $90.00 depending on size, the Mud Bug is not an expensive tire at all.

 It is clear that Maxxis atv tires are, as mentioned above, leaders in the production of ATV vehicles and the company appears to be continually improving its tire designs and constructions. Maxxis listens to the advice of the consumer and makes improvements based on this advice and feedback. Other tire manufacturers are beginning to follow Maxxis’ example and request feedback on their own product’s performance. Indeed in order for innovative designers and engineers to create safer and more durable tires, consumer concerns and input must be taken heed of if these huge tire makers are to survive in the industry.
