Default Finally got the Zilla's mounted!!

I finally got them mounted, I gained about 1.5" of GC. After I got them mounted, the rear tire measures 27.25" and the front tire measures 27.5", not too bad I guess. With the SS rims, I have plenty of clearance of the sway bar in the rear. The stock front weigh 25#, the front Zillas weigh 32#, the rear stock weigh 30# and the rear zilla weighs 35#, thats according to my bathroom scale.

That looks sweeeeeeet! Hope you plan to cover up them gleamers when your out hunting. They are sure to catch enough sun to alert everything in 3 mile radius. (JK) Any way hows the ride diff from stock? How about traction in the snow? The stock tires offer good ride on the XP but that's about it, they do nothing in the snow. The snow thing is kinda important to me because I remove it commercially. Hope you like the new wheels!

Look real nice Opie..... you can tell that tread pattern is way more aggressive than the stockers. Did you use spacers to get them out from the sway bay? If so how far out did they have to go?

Thanks for the compliments! I haven't ridden it yet as I just got them mounted last night about 12:30 in the morning, I'm getting ready to go out now for a little test run in the snow.
The rear are 11" wide and the front are 9", I didn't use spacers as those ITP rims give you plenty of clearance by making it a little wider.
It is a little close to the fenders on the rear, but there is enough clearance where it won't rub so I'm safe.

The only complaint I have about these tires is that they sling a ton of stuff past you while you're driving, since they stick out past the bike a little with those rims!! Other than that, they are FANTASTIC! I absolutley love them. Probably won't need AWD very much. A little rough riding when you are going around 3-7 MPH, after that they are pretty smooth.
