I have read that it will be hard to turn, but I don't think it would be much harder than the 10" wide tires that are on it now. Only time I really have any issue is while sitting completely still...and thats fixed by simply moving forward a bit.

The question is, will they fit? I got a killer deal on 4 27" tires but they are all 12" wide. Dont want to spend the money and time having them mounted if they won't fit. Its a 2004 Rhino 660.

Ok. Hoping to hear from someone who has actually mounted some on. The 10 inch wide tires haven't hurt anything(not sure what these come stock with). Doesn't seem like 2 inches more would be a huge difference, but thats why im asking.

I may end up just buying a set of 10" wide fronts and keeping the other tires as spares.

My front tires are 26 1/2 inches tall and they rub the wheel well skid plate at times. I cannot use true 27's on mine.

I have Mud Lite 26 x 10 on the front and 26 x 12 on the rear now, but I am dropping back in size. I will be ordering new tires in the next few weeks.....I am going to order STI Mud Trax XL's 26 x 9 on front and 26 x 11 on the rear. I did not have any rubbing or steering problems, but the mud from the front tires is terrible even with mud flaps and fender flares.

I want to run 26-10 and 26-12 grim reapers on stock wheels. Can anyone tell me if they will fit? Will I need spacers or lift? Prob ganna do CFM lift any how just worried about clearances with stock wheels. Also anyone have this set up on 450 how was power loss?

What kind of tires? I just want the look really. I do a little trail riding maybe once a month. I mainly cruise around where I live and my hunting lease. I pretty much baby it and have my small son riding with me.

My main concern is it has to fit on a 5' trailer. My buddy has 26-12 I'm ganna borrow but not sure how much difference the offset is on his wheels vs my stockers.

So will 27-10 fit on stock front wheel? And 27-12 on stock rear wheel? I want to get this size tire but do not care to change wheels. Thanks
