Hmmm?? Not sure about this, if you were a female model for Honda that would be cool. But I'm not sure I need a full spread of Kevin.

You sure do notice how much the stock tires slip and spin once you put on something aggressive...once it hooks up it moves!

I realize the OEM 14" aluminum wheels are different widths, but has anyone tried 28x10x14 roctanes on the stock wheels at all 4 corners without a lift? Do the different wheel widths have an impact on overall diameter of the tires? Any rubbing? I really don't want to increase width from stock and have been considering either this or 27x9 and 27x11 roctanes on the oem wheels. Wonder what the inflated OD of the 27" roctanes would be. Sorry for all the questions, but I pinched a stock tire a couple weekends ago trail riding in Arkansas and want to put something more durable on there.

Thanks,

Waylan

You will be fine putting the Roctane XD 28x10x14 on stock rims, you will still go 2 wider in front because of tire width to 64" and go to 62" wide in rear. The radial carcass will be the same diameter despite rim width differences. This tire runs 28.4" in true diameter at 14 PSI on my machine, they will rub without a 2" lift. The (Honda Spec Bighorn 2) 27" tires are actually only 25.5" if you measure them.

Thanks Jackal! On other forums I am reading that the 27x9x14 and 27x11x14 are 27.5" tall. Do you think the 27.5" tall on stock wheels will rub? I really don't want to lift it any. I added spacers under the springs to increase preload due to my front bumper/winch, but that isn't really a lift IMO. Really interested in the Walker Evans shocks too; at least in the front.

You may get by OK with the 27x9 in front, maybe just a little rub on drivers side only, nothing serious to not do it.

Sorry for digging up old stuff but this reply answered my question. Really like your build @JACKAL! Have the highlifter sitting in my garage, thinking I'm gonna hold off on new wheels and just get the 28x10x14 roctanes like you.
