Default 26" or 27" Swamplites on 500 Manual???

I'm looking for a little advice on what tires I should go with on my AC 500 manual. I've chosen the Super Swamper Swamplites, but I don't know which size will fit my fourwheeler the best. I do absolutely no harsh mudding or anything like that so I'm more concerned with slow riding and hunting. My biggest fear is to mess up my engine with a set of tires that are too big. Also, how can I go about re-calibrating my speedometer once I get larger tires. Don't make any sense to have a speedometer if the thing isn't accurate. Know what I mean?

I have an AC 650V2 and still stayed with 26" tires. I just see no reason to try my luck witha 7000 dollar machine. Anyways, if your looking for more ground clearance, youl get a little. I gained almost another inch with the 26" tires just from the difference in lugs! The swamplites are nice tires also, they grip very well. They do have a wobbel on tar roads though, but they are not a street tire!
