I've got SunF A033 tires in 26x12R12 from a previous UTV and was wondering if they'll work on my Rhino 700 without rubbing. Do you think the wider profile would noticeably impact steering?
 
the tires are beefy, and they'll likely fit the rear of your Rhino 700 just fine. If you're planning to run them up front too, you might get some rubbing at full turn unless you've got offset wheels or a small lift, but a little trimming or spacers might fix it. As for steering, yeah, you'll feel it, it:ll be heavier and slower response, especially in tight spots but for mud and trail cruising? total win.
 
After some thought, I've decided to hold off on using the SunF A033 tires for now. Without mods like a lift or fender trimming the wider profile might cause rubbing and make things more complicated than I'd like. I'll stick with something closer to the stock size to keep it simple and save the headache. Thanks for the advice @T.rex

Smart move, keeping it close to stock avoids a ton of hassle, especially without a lift. You'll still get solid performance without dealing with rub or extra mods

Always good to hear that keeping things simple is the way to go. Avoiding those mods feels like dodging a bullet and I'm happy to stick with what works without overcomplicating things.

yep, there's a risk of rubbing, especially at full steering lock or under suspension compression. I think you need to test fit them to be sure.

Decided to hold off on the SunF A033 tires for now. Check my update above for details. Without a lift or fender trimming, the wider profile could lead to rubbing, so I'm keeping it simple and sticking closer to stock size.
