Those look good.

@500 Those do look good. Tread kinda reminds me of the 1980's Wooley Booger ATV Tires.

I had 2-3 sets of those! They were the bomb in 1986! Wouldn't give 3 squirts of piss for a truckload of them, now. Isn't technology grand? We've come so far, and have so many more options.

Just realized I put this in the P1000 forum.
Can it be moved?
O, well....

I'm thinking about ordering a set of the Kenda HTR's within the next few days but I'm undecided on whether to go with 26" or 27". Either way I'll be mounting them on the factory wheels. Has anyone had trouble with the 27's rubbing? Thanks.

My 26's measure about 26.5. During flexion, I am unsure if a 27 would rub or not. You may need the frame mod if the 27's measure closer to 28.

Also, without any additional offset using OEM steel, I would almost bet it would be necessary.

Thanks for your reply. Great looking P500 by the way. I think I'll play it safe and order the 26". I'll get pictures up when they are mounted. I appreciate your advice.

I ride rocky, rutted hills more than mud. If you choose the correct lines, I could not imagine not being very pleased with the clearance. I gained over 2" and the traction is excellent. I can't speak for the guys who play in the mud pits.

@Chance135 Welcome to the Club! Glad to see you here, lots of good people and info on this forums. Look forward to seeing you around.

Yeah, not really into mudpits myself. Far too much cleaning to do afterwards!

Guy in another thread posted he is running 27x9 HTR's on all 4, and he had to trim the frame -- there's your answer.

Hi Jackal, great looking set up on your P500. I noticed that you are running the same sized tire on all four corners with the factory steel wheels. since the front wheels are more narrow than the rears, does this cause the tires to balloon up to a taller height? If the height difference is substantial enough, wouldn't that create stress on the drivetrain when in 4x4? Thanks!

No, the tires are all the same circumference (measured) all the way around. If you did something extremely wide or narrow I suppose that is possible like trying to mount 12" wide tires all the way around on OEM rims. But the 9" wide tire doesn't exhibit the traits you are referring too.
