  • Best swim tire??

    I'm in need of a tire for swimming. I was under the impression that Aqua torques were good swim tires, but I have now heard different. What is the best tire for swimming?

    It absolutly depends on which machine you have. The 26x12x12 terra tires swim great on a max IV. The 21x11x8 rawhide swims great on a max II or Attex. The Argo tires and the vendetta's both swim good as well.
    l like to buy stuff and no I don't do payments!

              I'm not really sure that any tracks swim well,at least none I recall hearing about. As far as tires,like Drew said," The 26x12x12 terra tires swim great on a max IV." I have a 6x6 Conquest and with Goodyear Rawhide lll's it swims really well however,member liflod can practically do circles around me in his Max IV w/the 26x12x12's.

                I've also run the 26x12x12 Goodyears on my Conquest 6x6 at Busco one year, it went really good in the water, better than the Rawhide IIIs.

                  Martin, I've got a max iv with good years that I use for fishing and it swims great however the ride is ruff. On my other iv I've got 16" vendettas although not quite as fast in the water an all around better tire. Smoother ride, better in mud, and more stable in the water due to the width. Guess it depends what your using it for. Hope this helps.
                  What it lacks in ground clearance it makes up for with traction.

                          Thanks so much everybody for y'all's help. Now I have a decision to make...Aqua Torqes or Terras.

                            If that's what it's down to go with the terra tires. Those agua torques are only good in mud, and they ride like cement blocks. Jersey Bigfoot tried them out on his springer and couldn't handle how rough the ride was. ON A SPRINGER!!!

                              Talk to Tim at Adair the MAX IV with pro series tracks swims just well enough to move on flat water. The 8x8s swim very well with Adair tracks. I run an electric trolling motor and tell people with tracks to carry a canoe paddle.
