So I think I'll be going with bighorn's..

On my 2010 sport, I've decided that bighorn's would suit my riding conditions the best...

I'm thinking 27's all around and 9' thick in the front with 11's on the back. What do you guys think about that? Are the tires too heavy, will I lose some bottom end power if I put these on?

I'm also thinking about going with black, 12' ITP SS212's for my rims. I think black wheels would look pretty good on my black/lime green teryx sport.

Anyone have any pics of black wheels on their teryx?

I think they are great tires for all around purposes. Size should be fine.

I like my big horns alot. 26x9x12 fronts 26x12x12 backs. You will be really happy with them, as an all-around tire(s).

Sounds like a good size and good tire for most riding. Bighorns run true to size so that tire will be about 2.5" taller than the stock 26" tires which barely measure more than 24". Be sure to post up some pics.

Will do!

I was supposed to make the 8 hour drive early this morning, but last night, I got called into work for some OT. I don't think it would have been smart coming off a 12 hour night shift and then doing an 8 hour drive to pick up my rex.

Now I'll be leaving tomorrow, spending the night there (because the dealership is closed on sunday's) and picking it up first thing Monday morning! What sucks is that I have to start my hell week on tuesday, which is 3 day shifts followed by 3 nights, so I won't get a chance to pick up the tires for another 8 days or so...

Nice rex! The rims look great; although I'll go with the 12's and not 14's.
Thanks for posting a pic.

I have this same setup you are looking at on mine. I have a rear seat, and when the tires were full tread I got some rubbing on the rear fenders when I went over whoops, etc. I tightened up the rear shocks a bit and it fixed it, but it rode rougher as well. When I replace, I will likely go with a 26" this time around instead of the 27"...

Do you guys figure that the clutch would need to be replaced with the larger bighorns? I just have the stock clutch for now. Also, will I lose some bottom end?

Awesome, thanks for all the help guys!

I ordered em today, 27x9x12 in the front and 27x12x12 in the back with black ITP SS212 wheels!

I'll probably do the clutch in a couple months. Hopefully I don't lose too much power with the heavier wheels.

Are you guys talking about Bighorn 2.0's or Bighorn radials?
