Right now on my SXs I have 22x11x8 tires. I was wondering if anyone make some larger ones like 25x11x8, or a size that will fit a 8in rim. These are for mud boggin so any past experences with larger tires on an SX would be appreciated.

You are going to loose quite a bit of low end grunt with a tire that size. Plus its going to look like a dragster, and you will be leaning over the handlebars. I went from 18 inch to 22 inch on my old SX and noticed quite a bit of low end power loss. I dont know if they make anything that size or not. Im sure you can find out on the web. Put you some 9 inch Big Red wheels on it with 25x12x9's. I dont know if they would rub or not. :beer

ill lose low end but in the mud if im lifted hell 1st gear will do er. And I plan on putting a 350x front end on in the winter so that should level the height. And if I lower the rear shocks it will make the back lower too. but the plastics might need to be trimmed or raised.
