Anyone know the max size tire I can go on a stock Yamaha Rhino? I'm looking at 27" tall but unsure of the width on the stock lift and rims.
They will fit, but you will lose some power.
If you go to the max tire size 27 you will loose power...go with a Mud lite and understand the handling changes thet will come with a lighter carcase.
What width can I get and use in a 27 inch tire?

Try this link out for some answers I did a search for you on the Highlifter webs site (Yamaha section) this was the results:

We use:
9x12x26" front
12x12x26" rear
BigHorns
and
9x12x27" front
12x12x27" rear
MudBugs
on our Stock Rhino ;)
You can fit up to a 29.5 on a Rhino but unless you want to mess with clutch kits, possible triming and eventualy broke axles you are best off sticking to a 27" tire 9-10" wide up front, 12's in the back.
Ok, I have some used "like new" Maxxis Mudzilla 27's. Will the 660 Rhino be ok with 27 9/12 front and 27 12/12 rear tires on stock rims, or should I look into aftermarket wheels with a offset, or stock wheels the 27's on it with 1" or more spacers??
I use the 26" terra cross on both mine. Awsome all around tire 8)
