i was going to buy em about a month ago. researched pretty good and couldent find much on em. what i did find was nothing negative about em. besides there weight but its a 8ply tire so weight is to be expected. i ended up buying mega mayhems casue i do tend to be in the mud a good bit and i found alot of reviews on them and they were all positive. i still may buy some blackwaters casue the mega mayhems are really aggressive and i dont need that aggressive of a tire all the time. keep us posted if you get a set.

I ordered a set of 27s. Hopefully I will have them by this weekend. I also could not find anything negative about them. Should be perfect for how I ride. I wanted a radial that was more aggressive than a Bighorn, that was 8 ply and that was not as aggressive as say a 589. Mudlite or Zilla. We shall see.

Wheels and tires and in. They are not as heavy as I anticipated. They measure 26 1/2 inches.

jmp30 are you running a lift on your 2013 rhino or you stock height? I am curious how these work out for you they look a hell of alot better on a wheel and in person than the pics I saw on thier web page for sure man I may pick me up a set of them I like the fact that they make a 9" wide front and 11" wide rear I like that combo alot in a 14" tire.

No lift at all. The 9s and 11s thing was a big deal for me as well. After getting them mounted up, in really excited to try them out. They look like a Bighorn that will do a heck of a lot better in the mud. They ride really smooth and they took away some bottom end but ill take all the benefits of the tire of the performance loss. I'm not a racer anyways. Ill post up some pictures in a bit.

Awesome I was curious if you would experience any rubbing on the front with that big of tire. I currently rub very seldom and its just the fronts when in some technical stuff usually with dips in trail that cause suspension to work and flex. I never feel the rubbing but I see I have by the marks on my inner fender aluminum guards.

Well I just got back from Ride Royal Blue. The tires did an excellent job at everything I threw at them I am please with my choice in tires. The only thing they did not see was mud holes that look like wet concrete (to much cleanup). These tires run really smooth of hard pack (road and trail). The mud holes I did hit I didn't feel like I needed a mud tire and they actually gripped and pulled a lot better than what I anticipated. They rode smooth on the rocks and I went most everywhere in 2WD. I used 4WD on a hill I wasn't sure about but that was it. I have zero grips about these tires thus far. Cant wait for snow.

Well I order me a set of the Blackwater Evo today and they should be here tomorrow and hopefully mounted by Friday. I was able to get $250 out of my used OG Bighorns so it was too hard to pass up the difference I was going to have to pay. I also saw your pic above jmp30 made it on ITP's new website on the October picture contest so congrats man! cheers
