If you are into the mud that deep take your trailer hitch off..
I found my machine kept getting hung on the hump on the deeply rutted spots.
I promise it will make as much difference as those big azz tires..
And don't forget to change that differential oil..like after every seriously muddy ride!!

you will be damn near unstoppable in mud with it.
my concern would be running into sticky mud which will weigh your fenders down, rubbing your tires or even worse destroying your fenders when you throw it in reverse and your tire catches the edge of your plastics

You shouldn't have any problems, looks fantastic! You need to put another one on the front.
27-12-11s all the way around, only rubs the fork boot a little bit...Plenty of riding and no problems.

My Feedback:http://www.3wheelerworld.com/showthr...-for-Stonewall
There is no Z in Diesel!!!
Doug: I liked keeping the hitch on for fun times like this. But if I'm going mudding I should go all the way.
Jason: My shock has always been on stiffest setting, and at full compression it doesn't rub. Tighest spot is where pictured.
And I have the same concern bigredridr, gathering material for rear lift.
Thanks to your pictures Stonewall I went with 27's, I was initially just gonna do 25x12x12 Swamplites or SuperLights. Looks like it works for you so I did as well. As for front tire, I'm not yet convinced an aggressive tread is needed up there, I do want it big, for clearance, but maybe not deep lug.
