Maxxis Bighorn MU09 — Front

MU09
The Maxxis Bighorn 2.0 MU09 is the front tyre of the next-generation Bighorn 2.0 — the lightweight evolution of one of the most legendary names in ATV and UTV tyres. Built on the same proven Bighorn platform that has earned an almost cult following in the off-road community, the Bighorn 2.0 retains all the legendary all-terrain traction and grip of the original in a significantly lighter package — purpose-tuned for the demands of modern, faster, and lighter UTVs and side-by-sides. With a high void ratio, zigzag lug placement, and 6-ply radial construction, the MU09 delivers exceptional grip, responsive steering, and the self-cleaning performance that made the Bighorn name famous.

Features and Benefits

  • Based on the legendary Bighorn platform — lighter for modern UTVs: The Bighorn 2.0 retains all the traction credentials and design DNA of the original Bighorn, while shedding significant weight to suit the lighter, higher-speed UTVs and side-by-sides that dominate the modern market — delivering the Bighorn legend in a package that matches today’s machines.
  • High void ratio with zigzag lug placement for exceptional all-terrain traction: The combination of a high void ratio and carefully angled zigzag lug placement delivers outstanding grip on soft, loose, and uneven terrain — preventing the tyre from digging in and getting stuck while maintaining confident forward momentum across variable surfaces.
  • Self-cleaning tread design: Specially engineered tread geometry actively sheds mud, snow, and rocks from the contact patch as the tyre rotates, keeping the footprint clean and maintaining consistent grip across changing off-road conditions — a hallmark of the Bighorn design.
  • Rounded front tyre profile for steering precision: The rounded profile is specifically designed for front axle application, hooking up confidently on flat turns and tracking accurately through ruts — providing the precise, responsive steering control that defines the Bighorn riding experience.
  • Optimised tread pattern with zigzag lugs for steering responsiveness: The zigzag lug arrangement increases surface contact throughout the drive, improving steering responsiveness and handling stability — making the front end feel quick and accurate in response to rider inputs across all terrain types.
  • 6-ply radial construction for shape retention and durability: The reinforced 6-ply radial casing maintains the tyre’s optimal shape under load and driving pressure, ensuring consistent performance and secure handling on challenging off-road terrain across the full service life of the tyre.
  • Performance-matched with Bighorn 2.0 rear: The MU09 front is designed as a matched combination with the Bighorn 2.0 rear tyre, delivering a cohesive, balanced front-to-rear performance package — with front and rear tread geometry tuned to work together for optimal all-terrain handling and traction.

In order for us to give you an accurate quote it is handy to have your tyre size to hand. The easiest way to find this is to look on the sidewall of your existing tyre, where you will see a combination of numbers and letters.

Width: (this is the first set of numbers) and represents the width of the tyre sidewall in Millimetres.

Profile: This is the height of the sidewall as a percentage of the width of the tyre

Rim: This is the diameter of the inner rim in inches

When looking for your tyre size note down the size of both the front and rear tyres as many cars have been developed with two different sizes.
