I just joined and wanted to give back any info I could to help future members. I have 1000-3 eps with 27" Blackwater evolutions on 12" ss316 black ops, and a snorkel kit from snorkel your atv, and an led from black oak led. At this point I can say I would have gone with 28 evo's and 14" wheels. I still don't know how good 28's would fit so I went a little conservative. 27's just look a little smaller to me than I would like. The black oak led 10" combo is great, and snorkel kit had all I needed and easy to install. I used this forum during my purchase and I appreciate all the info.
Haven't used it much since I put the light on,just around the yard and doesn't seem bad at all. I'm getting ready to do a three day trip in the Everglades I'll let you know next Tuesday. when I installed it I put a 11" x 3" aluminum plate 1/8 inch thick as the underside washer. I'm going to be on some very bumpy terrain, I'll let you know how the whole set up works.
They are just over 28". To get 30 out of them you gotta have over 30# of air pressure lol. They are great tires. Perfect for the rock/mud we have around here. Even pretty smooth on the road.
