| I asked about that tire right before buying my new Bighorns last fall. It was too new to have much info. Seems like it was heavy which would make sense since it is an 8 ply tire.
Seems like there are a lot of new 8 ply tires on the market. I guess the expanding SxS market it fueling that because of the heavier vehicles. | |

| Great looking tire---be sure to post how they do. I am wanting to step up to a 27" maybe by late summer, so I will be shopping as well. | |

| Will a 27" fit on the RZR without lifting or spacers? | |

Not with out rear spacers to keep the tire away from the motor mount unless you want to grind some off of the corner of the motor mount that I have seen unless there is a wheel out there with enough off set on it.  | |

| One of my friends had the 8 ply Grimm Reaper on his Rhino and tore a big hole in it at WW last weekend and had to be hauled back so he put his XTRs back on and was fine the rest of the trip. So no 8 plys are not bullet proof you still have to watch what your doing. | |

Mark they are 27-12-14 so the 27" is where the problem comes in at I think. | |
