The MST looks like a good tire but I don't really have any experience with it. One thing I can say about the XTR's is that it seems like the 12" rim tires do better in mud than the 14" ones. My buddy has the same size tires as me but on 12" rims and he can get through stuff better than me. I guess the extra flex in the larger sidewalls help out.

best on earth, they hold up very well. to rocks and anything else you might in counter. I have a set on my p700 and my rear swingarm skid takes alot of abuse and never let me down. and by the looks of it you can see how rocks and stuff just bounce right off. no major damage or dings. so yeah these are some of the best skids on earth.

Seen this on ebay today, first time I had seen them. Not to much coverage, but looks like it would definately be more sturdy than stock. Looks like something like this could be fab'd up a lot cheaper, but might give ya some ideas.
