shouldn't have a problem, some can squeez 28in tires under stock suspention. i've got 27in mudzillas over inflated with no problem. with the perflex u defently will not have a problem. i lost lots of power in mud and water with my zillas, but the gains in traction were uncomparable. my .02

I have reg mudlites 27's on my 05 with perfex lt and hl springs and they still rub the brackes a little bit.
xtrs are unreal with the ride, i rode a kvf700 with them around the camp grounds last week with 27s man did they ride smooth! wish i had the pennys in the bank : (

wow..i put them on today...what a big lift it gives the bike!!it seems to ride fairly smooth down the pavement also, notice some bottom end tourque lost though due to these beasts...seem to almost " smooth" out the bike during shifting though. not as jerky on up and downshifts... ( does that make sense?) they look awesome though!!!
