I've got a five year old Polaris Ranger that has been a great machine. Tires still looked pretty good, but just recently I noticed lots of slippage in the ice and snow. They weren't bald, still had all of the lugs, but lug depth was down to maybe 3/8"-1/2". Put some new rubber on this week and she goes like a champ, new lugs are at least 1" deep.
Soft rubber ATV tires just don't last many miles and running them down paved and gravel roads adds to premature wear.

I need to replace all 4 on my 02 Big Bear because of that very same reason. The downside is when I'm riding with the guys with "good" tires I can basically "drift" through the turns they have to ease up on because they have grip. But yes, traction is a good thing.

Put ITP mudlights on my 10 year old Honda over the summer. No slipping or spinning now. Traction is incredible.
