I'm a big fan of ITP tires, made in the Good Ole USA, think they have three different tread patterns. Happy trails!

Welcome aboard from Northeast Texas! Depending on what type terrain that you have, Mud tires are as suggested ITP. If you want a long lasting All Terrain, I really like my Tusk Terrabytes from Tusk Terrabite® Radial Tire plus you can get whatever you want from them. Tusk Terrabite® Radial Tire

My ITP Terra Hooks aren't mud tires, the Black Waters are close to a mud tire, they clean out very well. had a set.

Im running Wanda's 27-9-14 on front, cut a side wall on bighorns and rear still looked pretty good. so I bought something to get me by till rears wear down. There pretty close to size but lugs where smaller. The sunf tires have bigger lugs

A word to the wise if u can afford it buy name brand tires. I got 170 miles on the Wanda's and they look like sh##. There not gonna outlast the rear bighorns with 1800 miles on them. Made a bad decision went benefit ride that was 70 miles of pavement and 3 miles gravel road and absolutely smoked them.

Look at ITP terra claws they look really good and should be an excellent product.

Thanks for all the replies. I ride fairly slow & on trails, very little pavement. I maybe a little old school, but I like a wider tire (for looks) I was looking for the widest tire to put on my 12x7 wheels I made my original tires on a 700 last 7800 miles. Thought the Wanda's were a fairly cheap way to go. MAYBE TOO CHEAP?????

Can you put the 27x11 stock tires all the way around on a P1000-5 or will the be to wide for the front?

27-11 on the front with no wheel spacer may be a problem, depending on wheel offset. 27-10 would probably work better.

Ok thanks it was worth a shot. I was hoping with them being stock rims I would just be able to put them on and go.

The tire isn't the issue, its the rim. The rear rims are a 4+3 offset, without a spacer the rim hits the upper a-arm/shock mount area at full turn. At least with the 12" rims, I've not checked with the 14" rims. But I believe a 1" spacer will fix the rubbing issue.

Oh ok so I couldn’t just have the tire mounted on the front rim

U could but probably look a bit weird, lot of side wall bulge compared to the rears

The rear A Arms are a 5+2 aftermarket offset using STI HD wheels.
