Ok fellows, I made my decision and ordered the Bearclaws Saturday. I realize they're not a big time mudder, but neither am I. I've read several posts on other sites that use an atv the same way I do and they all have good things to say about them. If I do get stuck, oh well, its winch time. Once again, I appreciate the replies. Oh BTW, about the factory rims being easily bent? My old beater is a '97 model and my rims have yet to see the first dent. No offense, but I HAVE to take care of my stuff, can't afford not to.
