I can get a real good deal on some bighorns. My ? Is, they are 25x10x12. Can I go that wide in front using the stock wheels? Is it worth passing up to get 26-27" tires which I want but don't actually need? They are $90 a tire

Ya. You should be able to go 10 inch wide all around. If you want to make sure you will like it... Put the stock rear tires on the front then drive it around for a bit to see what it is like. It want be a exact match because the rims are different but it will be close enough to tell.

Now most people want to up-size while others like to stay at factory. It's really in your main purpose for buying the machine that should make the decision.

Oh... One last thing to think about. Wider tires on the front will make it a tad bit harder to steer.
