In certain smaller mvds in Arizona we only need a Vin # to make a UTV street legal. i have found 27x8.5 14 BFG All-Terrain's to go on a Rhino. What kind of gas mileage (mpg) can i expect driving one of these around town? Also what max speed can i expect?

arizona has a highway usage law, which means anything with an engine and wheels can be licence for the street, golf carts are limited to roads under 35mph , utv's are not limited except to limited access roads (freeways) you still need a rear veiw mirror, horn, and a lite above the licence plate and must wear eye protection, you will also need proof of insurance, arizona does not require DOT approved tires , as far are fuel mileage my prowler only gets around 15-18 mpg with 14" rims,

A Rhino will go about a hundred miles on its eight gallon gas tank. Top speed stock is limited to 40 mph. With an aftermarket CDI and sheave you can hit 55 to 60 pretty routinely. I wouldn't drive one over 50 mph for any length of time though. The Rhino engine was not meant for sustained high RPM use, and you'll be needing new valves if you keep it at 55 mph all the time.
