I dont mind paying but that is totally outragious for an axles..maybe 375 for the set I would be fine with.

What size Kenda Bear Claw HTR
I’m wondering what size Bear Claw HTR to put on my 2004 Sportsman 700 ? I have stock alloy wheels, I realize I wil need spacers in front regardless of what size I go with since they are 9" wide. Not sure if the 27" will fit or should I go with the 26" According to their site the height of the 27" is 27.4" and the 26 is 26.5" I read somewhere they run more true to size than the Bighorns, however, the Maxxis site says the height on the Bighorn 26" is 26.4" and the 27" is 27.4" front and 27.7" rear. I always thought they were supposed to be the same so the 4wd works correctly?
Anyhow I don’t want any rubbing/clearance issues besides having to space the front wheels will the 27’s be ok or should I stick with the 26? Currently running the Carlisle PXT 26"
Help identify these wheels
Could someone tell me what years / models these wheels came on? They are 12"
Need a quick answer
I am about to go on a trip to the mountains of Wyoming. The front tires on my 2005 Sportsman 400 are original Carlisle at489 tires and are "shot".
The rear tires are almost new (less than 300 miles of easy going).
I am considering Carlisle 489 X/L as replacements for the front tires. The 489 X/L is 1" larger in diameter than the at489’s. Can I use the larger diameter tire without causing any drive train problems with two different size tires, front vs rear? Since the current fronts are almost completely worn away, there is already a difference in tire diameters front to rear. What do you experts think?
The rear tires are almost new (less than 300 miles of easy going).

Help diagnose wobble with new Big Horns.
I just installed a set of 26" Big Horns on a set of ITP 212 wheels and now have a serious front end wobble from about 22-35mph. I only notice the wobble when riding on asphalt at those speed but I need to ride on the streets for about a mile or so to access the trails I ride up in Maine. Also, the speed limit in the neighborhoods is 30 mph and I don’t want to exceed them and upset the community. I jacked up the front of the ATV and spun the wheels as fast as I could to see if I could see any sort of wobble at all and I couldn’t. I wrote to Mud Throwers where I got the wheels and tires and they were nice enough to send me out a new front tire. The problem is I am in a wheelchair so swapping the tires and wheels is going to be a real pain in the neck. I am going to have to remove one tire and wheel at a time and drive about twenty miles to the nearest dealer, have them install the new tire on a wheel, drive home and install the wheel and tire, take in for a ride in my neighborhood in Massachusetts (which is illegal) and see if the vibration is gone. If it isn’t? I have to bring both tires and wheels to the dealership again and have them swap the new tire onto the other wheel and then drive home again, reinstall it again and take if for another illegal neighborhood blast. Does anyone have any other ideas on maybe how I can figure out which tire is the defective one without going through al this work? Thanks in advance.
