    26" or 27" non agressive tires for big red?

    Anyone had any 26 or 27s on there 250 big red that ride smooth. Like the factory tires or similar, I
    don't really ride in mud. Ride down the road some, just wanting to put bigger wheels & tires on it.

    Thanks!

    I've seen people using 12inch foreman wheels with 26 12 12 lawn and garden tires, looks a lil funny too, but I'm guessing it rode good. Is there any of those side by sides that come with taller tires?

    I think those maxxis big horns look pretty good, have you ever seen those? Another tire that rides real good is a 31'' Silverback

    I had Maxxis 4-speeds on my Grizzly. They were 26x11x12, radials and it rode very nice. They kind of look like a Holeshot with the lugs spaced out further.
