ITP Blackwater Tires: Ultimate Off-Road Performance
Good to know: over 50% of weekend UTV riders report first-mile terrain surprises — and that’s where the right tire makes the trip.
Those surprises are what the blackwater evolution radial was designed to handle. Made in the USA, this 8-ply Polaris sportsman plow tire pairs 31/32″ lugs with a tough tread compound and Sidewall Armor to protect across rocks and mud.
Its non-directional pattern gives versatile grip for mixed trails, so you do not swap products mid-ride. Feedback highlights smooth ride quality and sure handling on rock climbs and through soft ruts.
Built for real-world use, it emphasizes reliability and traction. Pick the proper size to gain a balanced blend of comfort and durability that keeps you rolling when trails turn rough.
Modern U.S. trails require gear that tackles rock, mud, and speed without failure. The priority is strong grip, long life, and predictable feedback when conditions shift.
Real customers commend both durability and traction. Reviews mention the tread lasting on rocks and mud holes, with slow wear in routine trail use.
- The non-directional pattern provides consistent traction on hardpack, loose soil, and rocks.
- Sidewall Armor and a tough compound increase puncture defense and abrasion resistance.
- 8-ply radial construction improves stability and creates a smoother, more reliable ride.
- Blocky shoulders balance grip and comfort for technical sections and high-speed links.
Taken together, the design, construction, and compound deliver confident traction and reduced downtime. Reliability like this keeps weekend rides on track and utility work stress-free.
Blackwater Evolution features and performance that set the standard
Smart design and durable materials drive longevity and on-trail confidence. By pairing a tough tread compound with a heavy-duty carcass, the blackwater evolution delivers long-lasting rough-trail service.
Hard-wearing tread & compound for longevity
A tough tread and rubber compound provide excellent wear and abrasion resistance. Practically, that means slower wear on rocky/abrasive trails.
All-around grip via non-directional design
The non-directional pattern maintains steady grip on rock, mud, and mixed surfaces. You get confident handling without swapping setups for each ride.
Deep 31/32″ lugs + Sidewall Armor + 8-ply radial
Deep 31/32″ lugs dig into soft terrain and shed debris. With Sidewall Armor for puncture defense and an 8-ply radial carcass, the ride smooths out and handling improves under load.
| Feature | Benefit | Best Use |
|---|---|---|
| Tough tread compound | High wear/abrasion resistance | Rocks, ruts |
| 31/32″ lugs | Improved debris shedding | Soft/mud |

Real-world feedback is backed by Made-in-USA quality and NHS classification: riders highlight stable rocky-trail performance and slow wear. For many, the evolution tire strikes the right balance of durability, protection, and trail feel.
Choose the right size, get quick delivery, ride sooner
Right sizing plus fast delivery gets you riding sooner with confidence. Start by confirming the tire size in your owner’s manual or on your current sidewall to match the selector before checkout.
