I have 14'' rims with 27'' MudLites and mine rarely rubs. But I do have a lift.

I have 25's on my '07 350, they fit with plenty of room so I'm guessing you could easily got to 26's. I believe the 350 and 450 share the same frame and plastics.

just a sugestion but the xtr as nice of a tire it is.... in my opinion it is to heavy for the wolvy.....i run 26 inch Zillas no rubbing and they are a nice light tire... very happy with them....

imo stay away from the xtr.....and if your going bigger you may want to think about the haauck machines clutch sheeve....will help with power and moving the bigger tires..

x2 on the Zilla suggestion. I have 25" Zillas (not MudZillas) on my 350 and I'm very happy with them. I do mostly trail riding with a bit of swampy mud along the way.
