Any real knowledgeable tire guys here abouts?
I love the comments and suggestions for the regular joe rides like myself. But would be interested to hear for someone more knowledgeable in these things…
I was pretty set on just buying Maxis Big Horn’s again as I loved them on my Sportsman… But the RZR is bigger and heavier. So maybe a UTX spec, 8-10 ply would be better… but what to buy??
I like the looks of the BLK Waters, but hear that they wear terribly… and at one of the highest costing tires this is troublesome.
Rockthanes are a good possibility too, But for sizing…
See I LIKE my 12" factory rims and would like to keep them. IMHO they are tailor made to my needs with the offset and width made for the skinnier tires I want.
I would ideally like a 28x9x12, but no one makes one. I require a Radial tire. I don’t want a mud tire, I don’t do mud, I trail ride.
What is the real world difference between the STD Big Horn in 27x9x12 and the X2 28x10x12 Bighorn tires? I know the BH run large or truer to size. My factory are labeled 26" but my buddys wifes Yammi has factory maxis tires in 25 that are taller…
Will I see a difference with only a 6ply compared to a 8 or 10 ply radial?
Also, I will be replacing the POS factory springs and I really like what I am reading with the Keel Clickers claim to have ELIMINATED belt slipping… So may spring for one of there clutch kits if the can figure our t the spacer problem.
SO, I may be able to go even a bit taller and open up my selections farther. I find most makers stop at 27" in a 12" rim. I understand its allot of side wall. I just cant see wasting my $$ on new rims when I like mine and they are just fine.
HELP!
