Badlands are the best all terrain tire I have found. I use maxximizer beadlocks, and balanced the whole assy. The duct tape on the inside of the tire is a must. Onne wrap with about 1" of overlap will do. I use the clear heavy duty 3m stuff, seemed a bit lighter than std grey duck tape, and still had all of the string stuff in it. Plus it was super sticky. This combo will be a bit heavier than a stock tire, but will last longer and perform better.

One more suggestion... Molded foams are a good investment as they last longer and work better than std forams. If you are using beadlocks they are not really necessary but I prefer to not have to change foams before the tire is worn out...
