I want to get a set of blackwater xt's for my Honda Rancher. Any recommendations on the best size? I'd like to get the traction without the power loss.

I think that the XT's only come in 27" size and I would think that they would be a lot of tire for the rancher to handle. But 27x9x12 all around might not be to bad and you would have to get 12" rims on the back.

I have 26" Blackwaters on my Rancher. The 27's won't fit without a lift kit. You need narrow tires up front or you will need to wheel spacers. You can see pics of mine at my website. Power is fine at 26". I am questioning at 27" though.
