I am about to get a 2006 Rincon and I was just wondering if 27" MudLite XTR's with 14" rims are right for a Rincon. How much power and speed will I lose? Can they make the Rincon better? I'll appreciate any advice. Thanks.

 

They will fit. They will rub a little when turning on a downhill slope. They will make it loose a lot of power.
I suggest a smaller size. Also there are better tires out there.

 

No reason to go bigger. Just stay with stock size or go up 1 size and get a more agressive tire. My rincon does better with an agressive stock tire than my friends Sp700 with 27" tires. Its better to have the power available with the right size tire than have a bigger size tire and not have the power needed to spin them. Going up to a 27" tire only gains about 1" of clearance. This will not do much in the real world of mudding but take all your power.

 

Rincon already has radials, so you can get a more aggressive tread, but there are enough utility radial designs out now that I'd never go back to a bias ply, no matter what I wanted to ride (mud, trail, etc). There's a reason they aren't using bias ply tires on cars (or much of anything) anymore.

 

Ok what kinda trails do you ride on? Do you want 27 for the extra ground clearance or?
May want to think about getting the high lifter gear reduction kit, helps with bigger tires. Need to take into a dealer to have done kit replaces stock gears inside motor with lower gearing.

How about looking into the mxr radial tires.
