I'll tell you, I got new tires few moths ago. I took some bad advice and got 27 inch ones. Now I wish I had gotten 26 inch. I got for the front 27x10-12, on 12-inch steel wheels. On the back, 27x12-12, on the same rims. Now, when I got them and put them on… first ride they rubbed bad, every bump. I had to put in spring spacer, raise the front fenders and move the floorboards back about 3/4 of an inch. Now, it still rubs, but only on extreme bumps. With the After market rims, I didn't have any problem with the tie rods rubbing. But I don't know if you use the stock rims. If you want to go bigger without a lift kit, I don't recommend 27 inches. They do look good though. Check out my pictures.
