I'd go eith the 27". I was contomplateing between getting the gators or the dirt devils, i decided that i would get the 27" dirt devils xt. What made ytou decide on the gators?

Personally, I'd go with the 27" tires. You can always make up the couple mph on top end with mods, if you feel the need. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

the width of my tires measure exactly as advertised 10- front 12-rear 3/4 taller than advertised 27 3/4 inches. 4-41/2 pounds of air, more if im mudding. 6-7. as far as top end if i wanna go any faster than 60 ill hop in my car, then again mybe i wont speed limits around here are 55 mph.oh ya if i run 6-7 pounds of air my tires measure 28 1/4. hope this helps grizster.

 

i rode with some guys that had gators and they were on a two wheel drive rancher and he could go through just about anything we could. they dug in real good and for the dirt devils xt my rubicon buddies have them on theres and they are good but by watching both of the tires the gators have a edge on them. but there good . just going with something different. and i appreciate the help guys
