Default SP 500 H.O. 26' or 25' tires?

I have hear mixed reviews on whether to go with the 25' or 26' tires on the SP500 H.O... I am concerned about power in thick mud

Here is what I was thinking of doing.. Keep in mind I have no lift, spacers..

Either ITP 589's or Titan 589's

Front 26x9-12
Rear 26x12-12

Will this work with NO MODS??

Should I stick with stock sizes instead?? (Front 25x8-12 Rear 25x11-12)

Thanks in advance for your help!

I'd say you'd be OK with the 26's...just gives you more reason to get some mods later on! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I run 26" Mudbugs on my HO with no power problems but it doesn't take much of bump for the front tires to rub. I have a Gretzky lift kit with HD springs which give me a 1 1/2" lift. This is much better than stock but still not enough to prevent the tires from rubbing on the fenders.
