I'll measure my Evos and get back to you in a couple days when I get home. I actually haven't ever paid attention to that. The size is 28-11-14. They may be off that a little bit. Do you want over all size including lugs? I only have 100 miles or so, so they should be close enough to new.

I'm probably going with the black diamond XTR. I haven't seen a single bad review for these tires. Everyone says they have great lateral control.

27-11-12 is $160 at Rocky Mountain. I love these tires. I bought the 28" for my pioneer and they perform great.

Crap, I've heard the 30" Evos only measure 28.5". I want the 28" height.

May have to get the 30" Evos even though they're only 28.5 to get what height I want.

It'd sound "cooler" anyway

I don't understand why the 30" tires would only be 1/4" taller than my 28" tires. BTW, I measured these unloaded. I jacked up the pioneer and measured the back tire with 7 psi. The person that told you the 30" tire was only 28.5" May have measured with the weight of the vehicle or more. Maybe that's what you want, at least I let you know how i measured and the pressure.

Let's ride at Top trails sometime soon and you can test drive my ride and see if you like the tires.
