the 27-12-12 fit but you have to cut the right back inside tire gust a little so the tire dosn't hit the gas tank cover but it took me 5 min to do it dont worry

Forrest-
Glad to help! Yeah, if you can afford it, the extra set of tires/wheels is the best way to go. With the Outlaws, you'll have no problem in the mud, then for the normal trails where you don't need supreme traction, simply swap tires, like you said, 20 minutes you're back in action! I can't tell you whether or not you'll need spacers-from Mudking's post-I think I'd get the spacers as opposed to "cutting the tire"-that just doesn't sound healthy!

I'd love to see your mud pics if you get them! I had a full roll of great mud riding pics from last elk season, but the damn developers lost the film! Guess I'll just have to do it again this year, try it again, see if maybe they can get it right this time.

Best of Luck, hope the new combo works out great for ya!

Mike

IF YOU DO DECIDE TO GET THE OUTLAWS PUT THEM ON AND SEE HOW THEY FIT IF YOU GET 27 12-12 IN THE REAR YOU WILL NOTICE THAT THE RIGHT REAR TIRE RUBS A LITTLE DONT PUT WHEEL SPACERS ON ON THE OUTLAW TIRES THERE ARE BIG LUGS THAT STICK OUT PAST THE MAIN PART OF THE TIRE ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS CUR 3/8 INCH OFF THE SIDE OF THE TIRE WHERE THEESE LUGS STICK OUT LIKE I SAID IT TAKES 5 MIN BUT ITS UP TO YOU I JUST WANTED TO EXPLAIN IT A LITTLE BETTER I JUESS SOMEON THOUGHT IT WASN'T A GOOD IDEA AND I THOUGHT I WOULD TRY TO HELP
