08 800 sportsman. Itp XTR, will they fit without any rubbing issues?

 

27-9 12
Rear 27-11 12

 

what size is the tires.

 

oh i just saw you added that . lol. that is the size i ran on my 800 and only rubbed wehn i either over loaded it or was hitting very hard bumps. you can raise your shock settings to help.

 

Ok thx stendori.

 

If the tires are an inch wider than stock you may have some rubbing on the tie rod ends.

 

good call moose. i for got to mention that i was running itp rims on my 27"s as well. watch the tie rod ends for rubbing as mentioned.

 

Was just remembering what I had to go through to get the new tires on. An inch in width means 1/2" extra width on the inside of the tire and 1/2" extra on the outside. With stock rims my 26x9x12 fronts were rubbing. If I used the ITP rims the tires came with the total width of my quad was beyond 50" in the front which won't fit through some of the gates on trails in NH. I ended up getting 3/8" longer wheel studs, putting the tires on the stock rims, and putting about 3/8" spacers between the wheel hub and the quad hub. My quad is about 49.5" wide now. Just fits on some of the tighter gates.
