... to run a 27'' tire or will it be fine without it, and would lifting it be detrimental to any of the components???

 

You will be fine without it, a friend of mine had a grizz with 27" ITP 589's on it. He did break a front cv joint, but that was from riding a wheelie in 4wd and when he sat it down it grabbed to hard lol.

 

Justin probably knows more than I do about the Grizz. as I have not as of yet put a set of bigger tires on one. But I do have a sponsored rider that has the Polaris 700 & we put a set of 28" Mudzillas all the way around with a 2" lift kit and it was still kind of close as far as rubbing was concerned when it came to jumping the bike. If your in doubt, I would spend the extra $110.00 for a 2" lift kit. It takes about 2hrs to put one on.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

 

well I really don't plan on jumping the thing, just wanna go for the look really, I only use my ATV for riding around the hunt club an putting corn out... that's about it.....

 

I've seen alot of them w/o lifts and 27"

but shoot, the kit isn't expensive, get it when you have some spare change [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

I have 26" tires on mine and they do not even come close to rubbing. The dealer told me when I bought my Grizzly that 27's will fit with no problems and they had one on the showroom floor with 27's on it. Also as far as I know the only lift kit available is for the front of the Grizzly and not the rear.
