you have tractor tires lol.......with that being said.....i say go with the 27s.....people are too caught up on the bigger is better.....which I will agree with to a point. 

BUT....the 27s will be FAR less wear and tear on your bike and if you really think about it an inch or two doesnt make that much of a difference.  Just recently I saw two identical bikes, one with 29s and one with 27s and there wasn't any place the bike with 29s could go that the other bike with 27s couldnt follow

that's my 2 cents....chit if your gonna go big might as well get the 32 silverbacks !!...then you will be a real man

I have 2 Brute Force 750i's. One has 27" ITP Mudlites and the other has 29.5" Mudlites on type 4 rims. I picked up the bike with the 29.5's on it already.

Bottom line? There is absolutely ZERO difference in the two tires in ability to make it trough the junk. the 1.25" of extra clearance isn't even noticeable. What is noticeable is the fact that the bike with the bigger tires slings mud all over you when you ride it. And I mean any time you run through any sticky mud...it gets all over you. Even if you're trying not to get muddy.....you still get muddy.

The big tires are also a HUGE drain on power and pure he ll on the axles, belt, etc..

Oh, and I use my bikes in the Everglades to get back and forth to my camp in the Big Cypress so, I am definitely putting them in the serious mud. Not to mud bog, but to make it to and from my camp.

But, if you don't care about always getting dirty, losing power, breaking axles and generally straining your bike, the 29.5's are fine.
