Default Opt help me on tire fitment

Calling the "All Mighty OPT", HELP. Have the 2012 Polaris Ranger 800, trying to get a straight answer out of a tire manufacturer on fitment on the Interco Swamp Lite 27x9x12-Fronts, and 27x10x12-Rears. My question is simple:

Will these tires fit without a lift and or wheel spacers, want to keep the Ranger in stock form

Like some people don't do windows,I don't normally do tires. Had the helpers,make ready guys do most of them.Even the aftermarket ones. Just if I had time would I get into this.If you have the steel wheels shows 25x10x12 front tires,26x11x12 rears stock. Cast wheels showed 26x9x12 front,26x11x12 rear. Ranger do have a little more clearance best I can remember,but I'd be guessing if I said they'd fit with out any interference. I just "***-u-me" they will.. The people that sell these tires should know.If they don't some other supplier should know or someone on the forum can help,especially some Ranger owners.

If you have the 26's on it now and want to go to a 27" tire I couldn't imagine it not clearing without a lift or spacers. The width is what makes up alot of tire fitment issues on alot of vehicles until you go a couple of inches or more in diameter. I'd say if 26x9 and 26x11 fit then you should not have any problems going to a 27x9 and 27x10. BUT, with that being said I don't own a ranger nor have I spent enough time around one to guarantee anything.
