Hey guys and gals. I have a 2012 razr 800 with a 2"lift with 2" spacers, I'm wondering what tire size would be good for it?? I don't want to go huge, just a bit bigger!

28 are a nice size. I got 28" mega mayhems and really like them. They measure at 27-1/4" As for axles you won't need them right away but I would pack a spare one forsure. I got a 3" in my ranger and haven't broke an axle yet! Yet knock on wood!

I had a 2010 800s with a 2" lift 28" mud bugs not a problem, mind u I didn't have it very long

axles arnt rent needed if it's a good racer tech lift but if u buy a cheap lift you may get cv bind

They changed axles in 2011. The inside cv joint is much smaller on 2011 and up, so you wil bind in rough going . With a 2 inch lift. Also the axle is much weaker and trust me they will break....

we had a 2012 with a 2" lift and 28" outlaw radials. the tires would rub the floor when turned all the way. you could probably stop it with some steering stops. we put the super atv forward a-arms on and never had a problem. I even ran it on a couple rallies with my 29.5" outlaw 2's. no rubbing with that tire size as well. Also zero axle issues the entire time we owned it. It also got used for plowing snow alot.

28 " is as big as most would go.
Also add a good adjustable weight clutch kit and you will be very happy.

Currently running 30" terminators on my 13' RZR S, EPI clutch kit and that's all! Put in 3000km so far on stock axles with no break downs! My 30s do not rub at all and I have no lift! But I do have a set of HD off set rims that maybe help my case!

I had a 2012 for two years. 2" lift and 28" mud bugs, with stock rims. Zero issues after two years, and it was used well. 28" is as large as you can go without running into more belt issues. I had a clutch kit in there, but it made the machine too "jumpy" at lower rpms. Only burnt one belt, and that was in the winter breaking trail.
