Finally got me some Bighorns , 26 x 9 x 12 on all 4 corners.
I have noticed a slight power loss, but not enough to worry about.Much improved ride over the stock tires !!!!

Wicked Sharp, like to get me a set of those on (all four corners) I just worry my p5 would not meet the height clearance , on my sheds over head door. I plan to try and raise the clearance on the door next summer, it'll take some mcguyvering, but if it works I think I could go w/ the 26" bighorns. Had them on my kawasaki and I loved them. I can't remember ever getting stuck w/ the bighorn tires.

I love my Bighorns they have performed very well so far. I run lots of different trails so I want a good all around tire and these seem to do very well in everything except deep sand.

If you have stock rims , they are 6" wide in front and 7.5" in the rear !!

Yep, I have stock rims presently. Thanks for that information!

Hey Chooglin, greetings from the great white north! I am just stating to build my ride and was looking at the bighorn but 26x9x12 front and 26x12x12 back. Any reason you went 26x9x12 all around? Or even 26x12x12 all around perhaps? This site is amazing BTW!

So I could rotate them !!

I don't think I would go with 12" in the front,
I am pretty sure they would rub !!!

Interesting point about the rotation. I hadn't considered that! there are tons of tire/wheels combinations on this site for the P500. I already have ITP 12' wheels but now p500fan , you mention you run 27x11x14 all around? back to the drawing board...
