| CMF when I was looking for tires I found some reviews on these and for the most part they were not favorable. I would stay with Bighorns, personally. | |

| I would if bighorns came in 28s and there 27s are only in12" I'm happy with the BHs just wish there was more size options If I stay with 26s its 12" big horns but I'm wanting to run 28s which with 14" rims it would have the same side wall as 26s on 12s | |

I wonder who is giving the review? I find that what I read and what I experience is two different things. | |

| Well....lots of reviews out there. My experience is the opposite. I have rarely found that the majority is wrong. The majority say that Bighorns are the way to go. IMO they are correct, for the riding I do. | |

Dave I am not trying to shoot you down buddy. The Big Horn is a prim example for ME. I hate Big Horns. I think they are a okay tire for what we do. But I had to try it myself to find out. That is all I am saying. | |

| Marty, I rode w a group of guys at windrock several of em ran these and loved them.They ride mostly Windrock w some brimstone mixed in and from what I saw they perform as well as the bighorn and better than the dominators(couple of em had these) do( IMO ) to better spacing in the lugs.They ran a mix of 28s and 30s and hooked up great in the rocks and it was very muddy that weekend also w/no problems that I saw. I was about to get these but sold my ride. They will be on my rzr-4 | |

http://www.itptires.com/utilityatv/bajacross.html Hey 4x4pac how do the tires do muddy hills and rocks They work really good in mud, we dont have many muddy hills are here. I have road on rocks with people that have the pit bulls and the big horns and I went every where they did. They are also a lot smother riding than my xtrs were. I will never go back to them. | |

No problem just not the tire I would run. To heavy, to soft and not a radial. I am rough on shit and the big horns hold up.....just like most say. To each his own. | |

They'll measure out at about 27.5" -- not quite as "oversized" as the 26's | |

| Yeah ever since my incident at prentice cooper ill never run 14 inch rims again. They look awesome but not worth the risk even as small as it might be. | |

| Been running 14'' rims since Nov 08 and never had a problem with pinching a tire. If you run a normal air pressure, there is no way to pinch a sidewall. A plus could also be run a true 8 ply tire. | |

| running 28s on 14s is the same as running 26s on 12s far as the side wall goes so flat wont be any different. | |
