How much bigger tire can i go without having to install a lift kit? I have a 2005 polaris sportsman 600 with stock 26" tires. Thank Ya...Dan

 

I am running 27 inch mud lite xtr's on 14 inch wheels with no scrubbing on my 07 X2. I dont think i could go to 28's withut a lift. IDK how much help that is for ya but there ya go.

 

Hey catlift254, some pic's of that monster sent my way please, I have the '07 800 X2, and am pondering what teh next footprint will be

 

i want to do a 2 in the front 1 1/2 in the back.. and put 26 or 27 inch tires on.. that would give it some ground clearance... but i dont wanna put in heavy duty cv joints... there aint cheap

 

27" mudlites will fit....but different tread patterns/makes might not...also if lift look at rd lift kits... i have them on both my quads...good quality and easy install....

 

what about your cvs? do you think its hard on them? do you do any mudding?

 

OK i just realized i have one decent pic of my ride on the cpu. I will take a few more tomorrow as it sits in the garage.

 

Send 'em my way, need to check out those footprints, was looking into the Bighorns, stock on the RZR's.

 

most bikes you can go up one size w/out any issues, but i think 28" tires would rub for sure. you may have to stiffen up rear suspenion on hard bumps or heavy loads as the 27"(depending on tire) may rub a little but not much to bother normal riding. imo.

 

thanks everyone!!! this is def. the most informational forum there is.....going for 27 in maxxis bighorn 2.0.........dont have time or money for the lift kit...
