On my 850, I'm running 27X10X14 and 27X12X14 zillas. So far, I love them - a great tire in pretty much all the conditions I ride in. I don't feel the width of them has compromised the handling of my quad at all.

Are they on stock wheels?? I was thinking the 10's and 12's might be a bit fat for stock rims. I also do realize the swaybar mod is being done for just abouy any tire I buy.

the zillas have taken me everywhere i needed to go so far. They run small though, so i would suggest 28's, plus i only have about 150 or so miles on them so i cant say on how they wear.

this is more water but it gives you an idea. unless its really soupy mud, they do well.

I still have the stock wheels and tires on my 2009 KQ Limited. I like the alloy wheels just fine rear is 25/10/12 and the front is 25/8/12.

I looked at tires and I am considering the Kenda executioner.
The best price I found was 63.99 front and 64.99 rear from tirepackage.com.
Exact price in the cart with free shipping 257.96
This is a 6 ply tire with a new "rim saver" feature... creates a lip to protect the wheel.
**
1. anyone out there have this tire?
2.since I am not getting wheels how much should I expect to pay to have
the 4 new tires mounted on my original rims.

I have 27x11x14swamplites in the rear and 27x9x14 swamplites in the front, so far I really like them and didn;t have to do anything to the swaybar, they also fit well on stock wheels

I got stuck in the muck yesterday with my Terrathons. They just pack up with clay and turn into slicks within seconds....and the clay does not spin out. Gotta get rid of those things.
