Get rid of the stock tires ASAP! They hold back this machines potential. I just put 26" big horn 2.0s on my stock rims. Not only do I gain clearance and traction but it was like adding power steering to this machine. Super happy with my purchase thus far.
Once I figure out how to crop my pics to the right size to post I will show you my rig.

Stock tires are not great at all, nice tires you got there. Any pics of them installed.

Why did you go with the 2.0's instead of the regular bighorn's?

2.0 is lighter. And I'm not concerned about sidewall punctures.
Originally I was looking into the sti black diamonds. However the dealer couldn't get em and I haven't heard enough about em.
I don't wanna order online because the shop we gonna mount me for free and match the internet price

If you ever get more pics of the sides and front with the new rubs, I'd like to see them.

Im running the Tusk HD 26" bighorn knock offs and it still fits fine in my full size truck. Adds height and not really much width. If you have any concerns with sidewall punctures I would recommend the HD version as the sidewall is thicker. The tire is heavier but I didn't notice any loss of power.

Well I finally was able to get one. Hard to find around here for the right price. She has 26 rip saws on factory rims. Hardtop & half windshield hasn't arrived in yet. I have the flu so I drove it off of the trailer & into the shed. That is my friend tying it down I weigh in around 300lbs so that's why I go by Housman. I was surprised that we both could sit & not bump shoulders. When I get to feeling better more pics.

I'm getting the black diamond xtr there is a lot of great reviews of them. They say them tires have some of the best if not the best lateral control.
