Is anyone running an 11 tooth front sprocket on a Raptor yet?

I know about all the naysayers saying that you shouldn't run an 11 tooth sprocket on the front of the Raptor because of increased chain wear, possible torque increases on the trans, etc., but there is really no other way to increase the inadequate ground clearance of the Raptor except by installing taller tires, which then requires lower gearing for technical trails. I can't increase the size of the rear sprocket because it is already close to the Armadillo skid plate, and lowering the skid plate reduces the ground clearance that you just gained by putting on taller tires. I really want to put on 22x11x9 Maxxis Razr's, but not if I can't at least get back to the gearing I have with the 12 tooth front sprocket. So, is anyone running an 11 tooth, and if so, how did it go?
