Default 26 12X12 front and rear

Hello all,
I am thinking about putting 26 12X12 front and back on my 2008 Grizzly 700, any feedback would be much appreciated.

Thanks and have a Great day!

Depends on what you are using it for. For low speed use in mud where you need more flotation they would be fine. For high speed trail riding, and for overall handling they wont be as good as with the normal width front tires. I put 25x10x12 tires on all four corners of my Grizzly 700, instead of using the narrower 25x8x12 front tires (Terracross Radials). If I had it to do over again I would go with the 25x8x12 on the front end. The wider tires up front tend to grab the sides of ruts, and tend to push going into turns, instead of biting and turning like they should. In fact, in another few hundred miles, when my rear tires are starting to get worn down a bit, I plan on putting the 25x10x12 front tires on the back, and getting some 25x8x12 tires for the front.
