I know you can fit 28's with a little bending and trimming without a lift. I would recommend 27's max but that depends on the brand of tire and riding conditions.

ive got 27's on my stock rims with spacers, spacers are needed on the rear only to get the tire away from the muffler as it cuts the tire on suspension travel put spacers on the front aswell to match it looked goofy with just the ass end wider

QUOTE (ymeagain @ Dec 11 2009, 03:15 AM) hey i have the same set up with my 02 and i am runing 27 inch mud bugs with ITP rims. they work ok but when you get in some deep sticky mud ya will need to put it in low. but for the most part i don't have a problem and i have ran them for almost 3 years now

I dont know from experience but from reading posts on here it seems like you dont want to go more then 26"...any bigger and it mite affect your performance and give you problems(axle, engine...)

my opinion...its built and tuned for 25"...stay with 25"

Im running 26x10x12 front and 26x12x12 rear swamplites on stock rims. Im told they run an inch tall but havent measured them. I consider them vastly superior to the 25x8x12fronts and 25x10x12rears that were stock sized. much better flotation in soft stuff and no serious rubbing issues. I personally would NOT recommend anything taller as the lost gearing dogs the bike out too much. I definitely notice the lack of torque at the wheels when I squeeze the throttle. I definitely use my low range more often now. when I need new tires I'll go with more of the same. my ride is a 07 rubi with a HMF pipe. no lift

I have 29.5" on mine. I had to replace some bracing and trim the fenders a bit, but not bad. It still has alot of power, But i did put a snorkle kit, jet kit, k&n kit and exhaust on it as well.
