P700 27" tires

[livefromthetree]

27's on factory deluxe rims here as well. No power loss that I can tell. Picked up a couple inches in height and much quieter on asphalt

Thanks, that’s a good looking setup.

Awesome, thanks for the quick reply. If you could change to 28s would you? I can’t decide if I want to keep stock height and get 27s or get the Super ATV 2” spacer lift and get 28s so I can get a little more clearance. I’m trying to compare the pros and cons of each.

PS, is that a JBL speaker strapped to the frame bar in the top of the cab?

No I would not because know a couple of people with them and it changed the gearing enough plus with tire weight they have a noticeable loss.. with 27s you don't notice a loss .but they still do pretty good with 28s

Okay cool, thanks. I’ll probably go with the 27s

M1 evil, loss of power for sure.
If the 700 had low gear it would not be an issue. Going to try 26” bighorn 2.0 try get low end power back.

I wound up going with 27” Maxxis Zillas. I like them, slight power loss but not enough to really hurt anything I don’t think.

They look very nice!

I like it , they look much better with 27s and you will like the extra clearance . And in response to a question you asked a while back that is a JBL speaker on my cage.

I like them so far. Not completely sold on the tires for what I use it for, I may switch to the Bighorns.
And I thought so about the speaker, it’s genius. I found a strap on Amazon for about $12 that’s made to put a speaker on a golf cart cage and it holds my JBL Charge on the top perfectly. You can’t even tell it’s up there, it blends in with the roof.

I run 27s on mine no power loss. You should be more than fine . I enjoy mountain riding there's never been a problem. Mine is also a 700 2 deluxe.View attachment 220298

looks like your roof is a little warped in this picture? Mine was the same when I received it from Honda. I used a heat gun and some pressure to straighten it out

I put SunF 27 x 9 fronts 27 x 11 rears and absolutely lost power. My SxS will not hit 43 mph anymore unless on flat pavement and takes forever. More of a 38-39 mph machine now. I also added a full size deep cycle battery so I imagine that a very small part of it.

Was that on the dash? If so use a GPS and see what that speed says. Going up in tire size may affect the speedometer. Not sure on that though.

Geez. That's more than my 28" blackwaters

Blackwaters are nice and not near as heavy. They will be my next tire. My current tires are 29lbs. Black waters are close. I pull mine like stockers and I'm sure yours does as well.
