Thanks for posting your findings. This will surely help others out, particularly with your long term testing. Have you tried leaving the rear tires in the normal direction and changing the front two around?

How has the tread held up? Are they wearing down much?
Stand for the Flag. Kneel for the Cross.
Mr. Zuk, I'm pretty sure there were mudflaps on that machine. No?
No not yet, I'll try that next and then try the middle 2 tires after that.Originally Posted by Mike

They are holding up amizingly well. I ride in the Ottawa Valley, nothing but sharp granite rocks everywhere. There is no chunking and no cuts at all so far, the tread is showing very little (if any) wear. I avoid the asphault like the plague and stick to the soft shoulder as much as I can when I do need to travel down the road a little. So far so good.
Yes there were mud flaps on it when I picked it up from you *hangs head* I removed them when I started to fab up the new ROPS/cab system I'm making. The Tazz flaps are going back on, I still have them lol.
How much top speed did you pick up with the Vandettas versus stock?
On the water my speed more than doubled, maybe 3x faster in the water vs the 21" AT-101s, I had 24" Argo tires just before the Vandetta, they were a fast water tire too but not as fast as these. When you hit the gas from an idle the front end lifts up about 10-12". On land I wouldn't know exactly how much speed I gained through the overall gearing change the tires gave but I do know my Max currently does 45Km/h (almost 30 MPH) with the Vandettas and the 25HP Kohler.
