Billy is right. It's Murphy's law for quads. There can be a single piece of gum
on a football field and my wheel will find it. The hard/softness of the tire
makes a big difference in the comfort of the ride. Too hard makes your bones
rattle when you are traveling a rough surface. Tough on the tailbone. I suspect
avoidance is the only sure way to fix the mud and poo problem.

Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] Mushy tires
Any tire will get dirt in treads and squeak when wet, depending on the
flooring, and the medium that lubricated the tire (water, Snow, Slush, ice,
mud, wet sand, etc.) The firmness of the tire will decrease the amount of
crud that gets transferred to the floor dependent on the floor type. Wether
the tire has inserts, air or is a solid core has minimal effect on the amount
of crud transferred or the volume of the squeaking.
It should be obvious that I have too much time on my hands. On this subject
there is one axiom that will always be true:
IF THERE IS DOGGIE POOP I WILL FIND IT WITH MY TIRES. THE POOP WILL ALWAYS BE
IN THE TIRE WITH THE MOST TREAD. GETTING IT OUT OF THE TIRES WILL BE SOMEONE
ELSE'S THANKLESS JOB, FOR WHICH I CAN NEVER SAY SORRY ENOUGH TIMES.
Stay away from poop my friends.

I use solid tires on my Storm. They are like sponges, if I go out after a
rain
and come inside I leave tracks and sometimes stains carpet and vinyl.
Any body have similar problem.
