Check out new Mudd-Ox beast with Mudd-Ox tires
2011 MUDD OX KUBOTA TURBO DIESEL
She's larger for sure, tires look like they'll work well.
Look like giant Runamuks.
Exactly what I was thinking too. They also look exactly like the newer Argo tires too.Originally Posted by eddieb1965

"Beast" may be an understatement! That thing is huge. Matt has been working overtime.
The tires look great and I'm sure they will swim since they are basically a 26x12 version of Argo's 25x9 tire. Any idea of the retail price yet?
Everybody dies, but not everybody lives.
I think the guys at Mudd-Ox are working 6 12s to keep up with orders and might switch to 6 14s plus they added 3 employees last week alone. The new tires are 14 inches wide though not 12 and are flat across the face. They swim great and the new "Beast" is very stable in water with the new tires. Price looks like it will be just under what Argo tires are retail. Matt is not stopping with this release however. He had the tire mold designed with a center section that can be replaced with wider inserts so if all goes well look for possibly 24" wide tires next....opps maybe I wasn't supposed to post that part of the plan.

Anyone got video of the MuddOx XL in the water? Just wondering how well it will do with the extra weight of the larger tub and diesel engine. Also, anyone know what the regular Ox is going to use for tires to improve it's water performance? Smaller sized Vendettas?
My guess would be that with a larger tubbed machine, the water performance has to increase. I would think a 26" tire would also fit the regular Ox, although I'm not sure of the rim offset or if a small wheel-spacer would be needed.
I am pretty sure that they did not get video of the new XL in the water this weekend at Ashtabula. I do know that Matt took the XL in the water a couple of times with me and my hustler 980. We did do a side by side run in pine lake and both machines were dead even for water speed. I do not mean to hijack the thread but for those Mudd-Ox people interested in water speed here is a video of my Hustler with the new Mudd-Ox tires. The water speed of the XL is the same.
I do not know if the new tires will fit non XL machines but maybe Matt can chime in here and let Mudd-Ox owners know if they will fit and if any spacers are needed.

If the new Mudd-Ox XL has a water speed about the same as your Hustler 980 with the Vendetta tires, that's really impressive because the new Mudd-Ox XL weighs even more than the standard Mudd-Ox. I had read on the forum that the new Mudd-Ox XL has another 600 lbs of water displacement, so maybe with the wider Vendetta tires the water displacement now has increased to 800?
