I like my front end to hook up so I threw my stock runners out after 90 miles and replaced them with 8" Woodys. It was a tremendous improvement but the limiter strap also needed to be shortened and the center shock softened to really improve the handling. The Phazer is not a sit and point sled it is an arobic workout if you really want to run in the twisties.

You can say that again. Trying to ride fast for 200+ miles a day is exhausting
you run 8" with studs or no studs?

I ran 1400+ miles this season with out studs I did however plan on studing it and even put 96 holes in my track. But I think that this sled would be much improved with a 136" rail extension and track. Being a tall sled it should have a longer wheel base to improve handling. So I am planning to do that later this year and did not stud it because of that.

I think the 6" carbides are best for a non-studded Phazer. I love the 6 inchers on the trail. However, I got stuck on a sheet of ice!! The new carbides bit into the ice and the non-studded track just spun. I looked like an idiot trying to get unstuck on glare ice with a snowmobile. When I got off to push I fell on my #*$&@. When I rocked the sled, the other Carbide would just dig in further. arrgh! 
A little cardboard under the carbides helped me get off the ice

Ya that was my main concern with going too big, along with a higher steering effort. But than again I've gotten stuck on ice with stock 4" carbides sooo

I put on 6" Stud Boy shapers with 96 studs. I am impressed with the turning and it feels pretty balanced with the studs.
