S12 vs M12 front

I'm looking to get a new front tire to replace the new pirelli I just put on. I ran a M12 last season and was very happy with it, but it seemed to wear quicker than I thought it would. Has any one tried the M and S12 to compare traction and tread wear?

P.S. The pirelli was free but brand new, It SUCKS in the softer ground. Free to a good home! Or any home for that matter

I've run both the S12 and M12. I like the S-12 more, I think it has better bite.
I can't comment on the wear. They both seemed to do O.K.
Wear rates can vary on your terrain. We have NO rock around here, just hard clay, sand, soft loam. The S-12 might chunk more in rocky terrain.

I think it's this one http://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/produ ... itle=Tires and Wheels The tread looks the same but I would have to go look to be sure of the model.
