OK so I'm thinking of running 28x10x14 on all 4s
these tires http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direct/tires/raceline_tires/product/submitProductSize.do?pc=10301&typ=ATV&tmn=SXS+MT

But I want rims with beadlocks and I found a great deal on ITP for $788 shipped offsets are 2x5 or 5x2
Tall Tire Talk Yhst-76800471066344_2144_610804381

or I could these off ebay and send them to get beadlocks welded on them from OMF
if they will fit?

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

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.
