Tall Tire Talk

true dat dog.

I'd like to have 28"s but I have a new set of 26" horns in the garage.

sell them 26s to me

what's the advantage/disadvantage of running the same width tire all around?

close to time for new shoes for the Rhino, run ITP TerraCross 26x9R14/26X11R14 love the handling & traction out performs my buddy's Rhino w/BigHorns on 12" all day except for the pinched or cracking sidewalls (Slime always). Also the B-H ride softer-smother but to me the B-H don't corner, seem to be tippy and push in the mud. was looking at B-H now I'm thinking maybe BajaCross. I agree w/Cat on the wheels seems like the same amount of sidewall exposed. comments?

JD, take a look at the Grim Reapers by GCB tires. They have a tread pattern somewhat like the terracross.

Also, lots of us guys a thinking about running the same size tires on all four for a few different reasons. One, you can go with a taller tire with less width in the rear to save wight. Two, you can rotate your tires if they are all the same size. You would get much more life out of a set. These are some of the reasons we are kicking around.

sounds smart, may toss some fronts w/around 40% tread when rears are near 0, will check out the GBC-thanks

right now I'm 61" wide in the rear with my 2" lift kit and my worn out bighorns.

Now that's something you don't see often, "worn out" and "bighorns" in the same sentence.
I have 26" Reapers on the Rhino but not enough seat time to tell you anything. I would say the 8 ply will come in handy and already added slime to each tire as a preventive measure.

Great tires. Just a little pricey.
