I would imagine that running big tires in front will make it wallow in turns.....

its actually 4 front sized tires, so 2 inches smaller in the back than normal. what do you think.

i recently put four swamplites on my ac that are all 28 10 12s. thats the only size they have in 28" tire. the only differnce is the 28s have 1.5 inch tread,the 27s are i think 1.250 inch tread. i kinda like them. theres not as much drag in the mud as there is with a wider rear tire. oh and they fit with a stock cat. no lift required.
