27" Bighorns on an X2

Anyone running 27" Bighorns on an 800 X2? Clearance or performance issues? Should I stick with 25 or 26's?

I always thought the 25's looked too small. The 800 definitely has the power to turn 26's or 27's. Don't know about clearance issues though. Someone with an X2 and larger tires will have to chime in.

i would think an x2 would be like my reg 800 as far as clearance and have no issues w/ my 27" xtr's. imo.

Clearance not an issue in the rear. Fronts have to be non-stock wheel offset. Strongly recommend clutch kit to regain the power you will lose and improve belt life.
