which should i get im geting a hmf pipe soon and a kn filter but i dont want to brake any thing on my atv cuz its brand new and i want to turn them in deep mud
You can turn the 26s w/o much problems ecspecially w/ a pipe. Those Ranchers are pretty bullet proof, so I would not be too concerned about braking something. You shouldn't need a lift either.
26 Best bet .
My friend got some 27" Vampires on his TRX300 4x4 and it walks around foremans with those "Mudbugs" all-day they do not perform well and they wear out very quickly. ;D ;D
