| I have 26x9-14 and 26x11-14 Big Horns now and I am thinking about going to 28x10-14's all the way around and my question is can I run those on my Rhino without any other suspension work or will they rub. | |

| depemds on what 28s your looking at. some 28s run 27 some 28s run closer to 29. either way 28s should clear on a stock rhino. the bigger ones may rub every now and then. i ran 28x11 titan 589s stock and never hit anything but the titans run short. | |

| I don't think I would try the 28's without a 2 in lift. With the 26 in You have on it right now, turn Your front wheels all the way left or right and see how much clearance You have between tire and floorboard. | |

| I'm looking at the 28" GBC Mongrels. I haven't done much looking into lifting my Rhino, how is that going to affect stability. Will it feel more top heavy. | |

| My 28's rub when I turned hard with my 2" lift. But they did measure almost 29"s. measure the tires after inflated. If they 28"s then you will only rub when you turn and hit bumps. If they over they will rub harder. Look on ebay and order the 2" lift for around $50. Cheap, easy and saves everything plus no strain on the axles. | |

I just put a rubberdowncustoms.com 2" lift on mine about a month ago. theres a topic on here with pics of the install, with 27" ultracross on it. The front should be be fine, the rear is close. I haven't noticed it to be more top heavy or tippy than before. I went with the RDC lift for stability reasons. I liked the way the front installed versus the cheaper lift. | |

| 28 10 14 may be close. I had 27" mudlites without a lift and when tweaked it came real close to rubbing. You can probably run them but it may rub in certain off camber situations.
Obviously a 28" Outlaw would be different than a 28" oem though lol
Get the 2" lift. I was worried as well, never any issues since. You can clear 30's | |

| my 28'' outlaw 2's were rubbing even with my 2'' lift. this was my solution a little cutting here and there. before cutting with my 27'' STI Roctane xd after cutting with my 28'' outlaw 2 here is a pic of the inside | |

| That's a pretty good idea, and neatly done. Nice job. I have a 2" lift and I do not find it top heavy by any means. Still has a quite stable ride and feel as well. There is also a 3" lift out there. I amy be going to change over to, still deciding on that. You can get a 2" lift for quite a reasonable price and they're relatively simple to install. | |

| I don't want to do any cutting and I am going to swap to some 28" Mongrels as soon as I finish off my 26" Big Horns so it looks like a 2" lift for me. | |
