I have done some reading, and quite a bit or research. Still a bit confused.
I have a bone stock 2013 RZR 800. with the factory 8 spoke aluminum wheels.
I want to replace my tires, and have been researching and re reading the threads on here. I am just looking for clarification.
I want to stick with the stock wheels
If I go for the 26 inch Bighorns 26X9-12 and 26X11-12 I will need a minimum of a 1.5 inch spacer on the rears to clear the motor mount?
What about if I stick with original sizes in the bighorn? 25X8-12 25X10-12, will I gain any height since the bighorns seem to run taller? Would I need spacers?
Seems there are a lot of copycat Bighorns out there Traxion Grippers / STI Rocktane. Are they direct copes? Do they fit better?

Currently ride my 07 raptor 700 and love it, my GF has a Suzuki Z400 which seems to always have problems. We normally ride at Wayne National Forest on trails which are 50" so rzr is basically my only sidebyside option. These trails are 1 lane and mostly around cliffs with many bridges and other items.
We’re huge sport quad fans and love light, fast manual 2wd atv’s but our daughter is now 9 and is old enough to ride with us in a side by side, so we’re planning on selling the z400 and getting a rzr800. My buddy just picked up a can am outlander 800 and I’m not a fan at all. It’s fast but can’t handle turns or jumps like mine, will the RZR be very similar to a normal UTV or a bit better because of the suspension. His ATV has very poor suspension which is most of his issues but he likes it.
on a used RZR800 is there anything i should be looking for? are there any buying guides anywhere? i know there’s a ton of options and aftermarket parts for these things, what should i look for or buy to get a similar experience to a raptor? Still not sure if me or my GF is going to be the main rider.
I know these are lots of fun and are great quads, just used to high speed/high risk riding where climbing up muddy hills and getting stuck is part of the fun.

I am going to change the clutch, Will that make any difference on the belt ? If I put a new belt will it be the same as the old I am learning as I go and even if logically it seems like the belt would be the same I would rather ask before hand than get done and find out I need something of a different size.
Thanks for the forum
Tony.
hello, I purchased a used 2012 rzr 800 a while ago and I notice that my tires look a little bigger than others. The fronts are 26x9x14 and rears are 26x11x14. I have 2"spacers and a lift. the front tires scrubbed the inner walls so I cut them out.
I read that going bigger and adding a after market filter and exhaust requires recalibration of the clutch.
I have a after market fiter and big gun slip on with mid pipe. I also have a big gun EFI controller on it. My question is, what clutch should I get to recalibrate all of this? on ebay I don’t see 26" tire clutch upgrade. I only see 27" and up. I wanted to stick with a kit close to the $177 dollar ones. any suggestions
