27x9x12 Bighorns on all 4

Trying to save weight while gaining ground clearance. What is your thought on this??? The 26 BH's come in 9's and 12 width and the 27's do as well. I want to run BH's but not 12's in the rear! Do you think the 27x9's will give enough stability?

Myself I think it wouldn`t be as stable. 27x9x12 Bighorns on all 4 414880

ya know, I can't imagine a few pounds hurting your performance unless you're drag racing or jumping...

I agree ---- my concern would be about the stability. I don't think the extra weight is going to make that much difference.

Thanks guys, I was just debating! I like the idea of big tires but I fear turning my rhino into a slug.

Bighorns come in 11'' width too, imo 9'' rear is to narrow. There is a reason for wider tires on the rear. Rear is heavier so wider distributes the weight better also the rear wheels do most of the pulling so wider gets more rubber on the ground for traction.
