I have a bruteforce 750 and i want to put on 27inch tires. I just got a set of mudlite 27x10x12 up front and 27x12x12 out back. My brother just put 27inch mudbugs on his brute the same size and wants to give them to me because he dosent like them and is going to buy some outlaws. I'm just wondering which ones i should put on my bike for mud and trail rideing?

Bugs, much better tire imo. Only benefit of the mudlights is that they might ride a little smoother under 5mph.

Bugs pulled well on the ranger 500, no complaints.

I used to ride with a guy that had Bugs and i had the same size mudlites on the same type of quads, in mud his bugs would out pull the mudlites everytime and i even had a 2" lift that he did not have. I do think the lites are lighter and climb better and ride smoother, but in mud the Bugs win easy.
If they made 30" bugs i would have a set of them over my 30" mudlites

Mudlites are a glorified stock tire. I had a set but not for very long.

Go with the Bugs over the Mudlites. You won't be sorry.
