At least get the 26.5s

I have the 27.5s and they are really heavy .

I love them , but they took some of my power away for sure.

If could change to the 26.5s i would.

they are the best tires i have ever had. ride great, will climb hills like a Goat on Steriods .

Yes they work with all beadlocks, as beadlocks are not designed for the ring to bottom out on the rim .

The Only drawback is the weight , like i said.

BUT that comes from the 8 ply rating, So no more side walls cut out and stranded on the trails .

Its worth the trade off, unless racing on a course where you need all you can get .

Thanks,,, I think I will get the 26.5 size I thought about the 25.5 but wanted to be same as stock ... I haven't had one tire cut down yet with the stock tires..They have been through hell, I really can't believe it!

What is the real size of the stock 27's..

The stock 27 bighorns are actually closer to 26"

The 26.5 pits are closer to 27"

ok, so im hoping this isnt such a dumb question that i get made fun of, but.....did you all buy the same 26.5x9x12(14) for the fronts and backs like the can am website says that they are?

my rhino had different sized fronts and backs...that has to be a typo, doesn't it? shouldnt it be 27x11x12(14) for the rears?

thanks for any info. you can give.
