Depends on his clearances he has to spare. Usually any rubbing is caused by going wider not taller.

To be safe 24x10-10 would fit trouble free on a Bayou. Maybe even 25s .

You might want to watch how wide you go and how big the tread will be. A friend of mine went two inches wider and the tread was about a half an inch taller. His machine lacks the low end power to keep those wheels turning when it counts. Looking back he wishes he went taller with smaller tread.
