I run 27" Dirt Devils on my 650. Stock rims and no clearance problems. They ride a little stiff unless you ride it a little fast. I'm very happy with the increased ground clearance and the ability to climb over things. And don't worry, the 650 has more than enough power to turn these tires.

We have Dirt Devils on both our machines. You have to watch the tire pressure or the ride will be severe. I don't run more than 3 1/2 psi in ours, ever. I have broken off a valve stem on a rear and it carried me back to the truck. In fact,it rode pretty well flat. Traction seems to be good in dirt, sand and mud. I have been satisfied with the tires, especially when you consider the price.
