Okay, so I am going to try the Artrax CTX tires (big horn replica type). Almost everything I have read has been positive and the price is good. But, I can’t make up my mind on 25 bias or 26 radials. So gonna throw it out to you guys for some thoughts and opinions. Yes, I know its ultimately up to me, but I like to hear suggestions. I know I only gain 1/2 inch in ground clearance going to the 26s. But is the extra width really worth it? I don’t really do the cosmetic thing so if there is no real gains, I don’t see the point in going up. I ride in oklahoma, mostly dirt trails with rocks, tree roots, creek crossings with some occasional slimmy mud (i stay out of the deep mud) and some areas has lots of rocks like Cross bar Ranch.
So here is what I have been able to find on the tires by searching around the internet and asking through PMs. Motosport doesn’t have the info posted. All tires are rumored to be true to size, if not a little bigger. Tread depth is approx 1 inch. These will be going on a 2015 570 touring EPS with the factory steel wheels.
Looking to purchase some new tires (Bearclaw HTR’s) from the mentioned websites as I found they have the best prices and wondering if anybody has a coupon code by chance…
Well I’m going to try this again,
I have a 2015 sportsman 570 base model and I don’t like the stock wheels that it came with. What is available or what do I look for in a custom wheel that would be a direct bolt-on replacement using the OEM tires?

I love my 570 Touring and am looking to upgrade the tires to 26" Bear Claws which is good. Stock steal rims suck for looks but keep the bike under 50" most of the riding I will be doing will be on forest roads and jeep trails but I am planning several trips to areas that have a lot of 50" trails (which I prefer to ride). My question is should I upgrade the tires and rims and hope to stay at 50" or just upgrade the tires and add spacers? I could keep the stock wheels and swap out as I need on these trips. 14" wheels is not an option must stay with 12"

Hi, I am new to the four wheeler scene and been researching about rims and tires. I recently bought a four wheeler for me and the little brother to start working on for him to ride it has a 2 inch lift and 27x9x12 front and 27x11x12 on the rear. I am looking at 14 inch wheels with 28×9.5 all the way around or 28×9.5 on front and 28×11 on the rear. My question is being bigger rims will it effect a whole lot? Like i said this is new to me so some opinions would be great. Thanks for the advice
Hey all, I got my first pinch flat today on the 26" stock Polaris tires with the 14" wheel setup. I’m trying to get some more clearance for the very rocky deer lease and some more side wall to avoid pinch flats. What are my options? Seems like tire clearance is an issue with the touring models due to some tab I need to bend or remove?
I’d really like to get a set of bighorns, but to go bigger it looks like I’d have to go to a 28"?
