Would all you RTVers do me a favor. After taking all sorts of measurements. I have come to the conclusion that its imposible to bottom out tires in rear. 3 1/2" to dead axle, 5" to top of well.</P>


Hammerhead asked about a down hill turn and hitting a sizeable hole with the outside wheel with a heavy load. In doing the math it is possible with loads upwards of 2000 lbs generating a force of 300 lbs plus on the front wheel could cause the tire to scrub the flair edge. Making a sould like puting baseball cards in your spokes on your bike.</P>


So lets have some imput, turn your wheel to lock and measure your clearance whether you have stock tires or aftermarket ATVs I would like your measurement. Thank You.</P>


Two Guns, my wife thinks I'm crazy, out hanging off the front edge of my RTV trying to close the gap with my ultralight 275lb body ( did I mention "too Sexy for my Body"). Could not close the gap more than half way.</P>


BXs full-lock turn clearance to flair edge 2" from closest top bar on tire</P>
 
Look at those wheels shine!!! Had to put my sunglasses on to see the tires. Looks like we have a couple of No-Hitters!
 
Thanks guys.. Ezchair... I would have liked to have seen you out there trying to compress your suspension[:)] it must have been a sight.</P>


I guess it says a bit that your dealer has put these tires on his own machine. I did spend some time online yesterday.. trying to find more feedback on those that have used this tire. I did not find much...nothing else bad... just not many users. [that I wasable to find]</P>


I did find quite a few others that are using the bighorns, and were happy with them.</P>


They are both sounding good. I would probably be happy with either one. They would both cost me about the same..or fairly close anyways. </P>

So does this mean you guys aren't all coming for a demo?[:)]</P>
