anybody running GBC tires??

Looking to replace my stock tires [3100 miles] with something more agressive. I ride woods, mud, creek beds, and some rocky trails. The rhino is used mostly for farming but all work and no play is not my style. I like the Grim Reapers and the Spartacus but haven't seen any reviews. Any ideas or suggestions??

I am having my Grim Reapers mounted tomorrow and pretty excited to try them out. I have read nothing but good reviews on them and they're reasonably priced. I am getting the 25 inchers mounted and the only thing that concerns me is the weight rating on the tires. Fronts are rated at 450 and rears at 550 if my memory serves me right. Hopefully this wont be an issue since I do have the rear seat cage and cooler rack. But being a 8 ply you would think the weight wouldn't be an issue. Guess I will find out soon enough!

I have the grim reapers on my 07 450. Have put about 500 miles on them and they ride great. Much better than the stock tires. I ride mostly trails and gravel roads. They seem to be wearing fine. Should get plenty of miles out of them. They are real smooth on pavement compared to stock tires. They are less expensive than the Big Horns which is what I was going to buy. Got a great deal on these and could not pass them up. I am very happy with them.

I have the 26" GBC Grim Reapers and really like them. They ride smooth, Great traction, Deep Rim guard, 8-ply radials and they look good. Plus they are not to expensive.
