On a Rhino, do I want 14" wheel/tire or 12" wheel/tire? 9's in the front, 12's in the back. Should they be 26's or 27's?

Thanks in advance.

If you ride in ANY rocks, get the 12" rim. I would say 26", because they actually measure around 26.5" tall. The 27" are really heavy and rub the side of the fenders, and they measure close to 28"!!

Thanks for the reply. I ride on rocky terrain quiet often. I will go 12X26.

I have been running the big horns for a couple years now on my Brute and I just honestly have no reason to want another tire. They do everything I want them to do, they go everywhere I want to go, they never wear out, and I have never had to plug them. Those pit bulls may be the greatest thing but for the extra cost I just don't need them.

I agree 12x26 Bighorns, I have 14 TerraCross and sweet on high speed but can't go through rocks without worry of pinched sidewalls. Dont like the 14 rock bangers and just waiting to get the goodie out of the ITPs so I can go to BigHorns. Most likely will buy 12 wheels and pawn off the SS 14s to a mudder with a 4 wheeler.

Just remember the bigger the tire the less H.P. On a Rhino 26 would be max....IMO.
