Default tire question...

hello, i am considering buying new tires for my bigbear..i want to start mudding more and tires are the first upgrade..my question is...how come once you get to a 26inch tire how come the only widths are 12 inch and 9 inch for the bearclaws and the 589's?...i would really like a 10 inch width and a 8 inch for the front...the bearclaws lugs get smaller when they go down to 25inch right?...is that the same for the 589's?...also...will there be any rubbing problems with these tireS?...and if i were to go with the 12 inch width on the back and 9 on the front how much prower would it rob..thanks for your help...i dont want to make a wrong choice because i will be stuck with the tires for a long time!..thanks

i think 25's and 26's on the 589's are the same. The bear claws i think are the same 25 and 26 but 27's are bigger lugs.
