Tires

I have a 2015 Outlander 650 Max XT and I in the market for new tires. I would like to know if anyone has installed Kenda 299 Bear Claw 27 inch on this same machine and if everything was ok. The Kenda tires are a bit wider and with my stock tires I only have about an inch of clearance from my rear tire to the shock. Would like to know before I go ahead and order them.
