I just currently bought a new "08" Brute Force 750i IRS(realtree). Im looking to upgrade my wheels and tires. I was wondering if anyone knew what are the biggest tires I can put on my brute without having to add a lift kit. I have decided I want the Hghlifter Outlaw tires(27in.) with the ITPSS108/black rims(12in.). Because of the width of these particular tires will I also need wheel spacers to provide adequete clearance when making sharp turns. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Still kinda undecided. Keep'um muddy guys.

27's will fit no problem, but make sure the rims are made for the 08. 08 model has different hub than all prior models and the wheels wont fit.

i saw a guy at mud nationals rockin' 28's with no lift. honestly they looked like they were clearing just fine but i had noticed that he adjusted his shocks to the highest setting.

i also adjusted mine and it gave me almost 2' of clearance.

i run 27' mud lite XTR's on 12' ITP 108's. my tires are all rears (no fronts) and i didnt need any spacers. mine run and turn great. obviously they arent as beefy treaded as the outlaws but i really dont think ull need spacers.

what i did was i ordered the spacers with my tires just to make sure, i saw that i didnt need them and i sent them back.

i really dont trust spacers anyway. when u use spacers ur setting out ur tires and naturally that puts more weight on ur hubs, so try and get away from the spacers if u can.

i'd like to use the rattlesnake rims on a set of 28" outlaws-- will i need to special order the rims for an 08 BF750 or just choose the right bolt pattern? any suggestions on where to get the rims without going to the stealership?
