I'm putting 27" tires on my ZFORCE 800.  Has anyone had any issues with 27" over the stock 26"?

I run 27" Grim Reapers on the stick wheels on my Trail (53)...ZERO issues. Go for it. Afterwards you might want to consider reclocking the secondary to make up for the weight and size gain though. I like B2 for about everything.

Just to save me the time .... you have the specs on what you installed?    Part numbers, where you purchased (Amazon?) etc .....

Are these a good all around tire?   I drive my Z500 trail on paved roads as well as dirt roads and muddy trails.

Thanks!

They are a decent all-around tire. The best place to get them is DiscountTireDirect. They were 27x9s &11sx14. There are so many others out there too. I do like GBC tires though and DT likes the Dirt Commanders on SxSs. Although I like a radial on most things I think next time I will try a Bies ply on this one just because I like to through it around and a radial tends to grip sometimes too hard in corners.

You can get them for less then 150 US on ebay..better yet I got mine from discoundtiredirect.com for like 130 each. But I have to tell you..I don't think these are the best tire for a SxS. I think their Dirt Commanders are a better choice. If I ever wear mine out that's what I'm probably going to.

Got mine there, too.  If you're patient, they always have deals around holidays, usually no interest financing and rebates, etc.
