I Would go with 26's. You will lose too much power with 27's. As far as type, what kind of riding do you do?

It's more up to you, it depends on your riding style... how aggressive a rider you are... and how much money you want to spend.

There is a section in the gallery dedicated just for pictures of tires... they're not all in there... but a good portion of the more popular ones are.

Good luck with your decision and let us know what you decide on.

I'd got with Swamplites or Mudlites XL's. Both are real good in the Mud and Trail. I have had both. I guess I would go with the Swamplites.

just wondering the 27" tires did they take alot of power away or they didn't perform well? i've seen alot of folks run 27" on their 420 ranchers.

Those are some awesome tires. I seen a set on a Artic Cat this week at the Artic Cat dealer in Crossville. There were 26's and man they look good. A plus is there made by Maxxis. I bought a new set of Maxxis Bighorns and after the first ride around the house well you know what i'm saying. Maxxis makes a great tire.
