P700 Tire size going to 27's

[Donsavage]

I am up sizing my tires on stock rims (25) to 27. What size can I go to without changing rims?

 

[swsebek]

Almost up to 30s... depends on brand..... but 27s are perfect.I run 28s But accasionally I tear my mud flap to shreds and I replace them....

I've got Maxxis Carnivores 28x10 and they rub when turning with suspension compression.

Depends on tire a "true" 28 will rub on the floorboard without a lift. True 27's won't.

I've got commander shocks and it still rubs on the floorboard both sides.

Mine didn't but I had a home brew 3-4" lift based on 2" StrongMade

I have a 700-4 and would like to upgrade to 27s. Have you guys noticed any power loss by increasing the tire diameter?

 

[swsebek]

You will be fine and pleasantly surprised how much of a difference it makes

Not much I had 27 on my pioneer 700-4 for over a year works great.

Great. Thanks. 27" ITP Blackwater Evolutions on the way. Merry Christmas to me!

I went with 26" rip saw tires...up from the 25" stock tires. There is plenty of room for the 27" tires...I just was afraid to change the gearing too much with just the 3 speed transmission..wanted to keep plenty of low end for slow speed crawling..

Did you guys use same width for front and back?

I can't speak for everyone but I used the same width 27x10x12 all 4 corners . They last alot longer that way when you can rotate them.

How do you like the 26” rip saws?

Sorry just noticed this is 3 years old.

 

[JimmyA]

Yep, old thread! 27/9/12 all the way around! Love them, Terrabites.

I am running 27” tires on stock rims on a P500. You can easily run them on a P700.

Looking to go to Tusk Terrabytes, 27”. 700-4. If I keep stock widths, will I be fine with no lift? And does anyone notice a height difference on their machine going to 27’s? I don’t much height to spare on storage.

 

[JimmyA]

Go for it, that's what I run! You will gain about 11/2 inches in height.

I am running the same. 27" Terras with stock wheels. No rubbing. Gained about 1.5" for sure. Maybe 2". Only 100 miles or so on them, but 100x better than stock were.
