600 Miles of Rocky Trails and Asphalt Roads and the Stock Front Tires are Done. I'm going with truck tire's now. Probably 27x9.50x14 Super Swamper SSR or Maxxis Bighorn 27x8.50x14. Who has done this truck tire route. Pics and advice appreciated.
Hi Ozark. I saw a RZR, I know, but it had a set of BF Goodrich Mud T/A's on it. looked skinny from behind , but looked good from the side. He had the white letters out, same as me on my truck. I figure if your going to pay that much , you might as well let people what they are. They are too big for my 500 but they did look good.

Later
Caper.

I've been running BFG AT KO2 for a couple years. Over 1200 miles and hard to see any wear at all. LOTS of street and highway running since UTV's are street legal in AZ and you can ride from your house.
I've run the BFG's in the AZ desert and Wisconsin trails and logging roads. They are very predictable and great when it's dry. I don't do deep mud.

Mopar commented that BFG's are heavy as hell. NOT TRUE!
Here the weights I've measured for several 14 and 15 inch wheel and tire combos I have owned - all on aluminum wheels.
28" Mongrels on HD3 wheels - 42.6 lbs
BFG 215/75-15 on MSA wheels - 42.8 lbs
27x11 Bighorns on stock Commander rear wheels - 43.2 lbs
28" Bajacross on ITP wheels - 47.8 lbs
28" Tensors on HD3 wheels - 49.2 lbs

I'm running 235/75/15 bfg ko2, 2800miles and no sign of wear at all. They measure 28 1/2" tall. 15x7 wheels on 5+2 offset
Just curious what brand of rims did you go with? And where did you get them from? Not finding a lot of options with the 15x7 5+2 around?
Thanks

They are mounted. Machine is still at the dealer getting a pinion seal. I haven't seen the tires yet. I will keep you posted
Since I never followed up with this tread, here's a bit more info

The Quadboss 846 28x10x14 tires are a bit small compared to their actual size. The tires measure 27x9 on all 4 stock wheels with 14 psi. They are quite a bit larger than stock even though they measure a bit smaller than advertised

Here are a few photos.

So what PSI do you run BFG's since when on a truck they like 50psi?

I'm new what is the 5x2 offset?
I saw a guy , up here, running a set of new TA’s . The KO2 ‘s same as I have on my truck. His were just 15’s but looked good. Same size all round. But they would wear forever on a sxs. If they work on a RZR they would definitely work on a Honda.
