Looking to run Light truck A/T tires on my 900S?

Was curious if anyone on here runs light truck tires on their 900S. I would like to upgrade to 15" wheel and get a BFG A/T KO that measures around 30" tall. Preferably a bead lock wheel also. Any suggestions on wheels and how has it worked for you? I feel like with my style riding the KO’s would be sufficient and to keep from having to run them at a very high pressure a bead lock wheel should do. Seems to me a light truck tire would last a hell of alot longer than some of the ATV tires on the market.

Winch and plate options

I’m sure this has been covered before but i’m looking into putting a winch on my 900s and was wondering what everyone recommends for a winch and plate? I do know I want a larger poundage winch like a 4000 or 4500. I’ve put 4500 lb synthetic rope Superwinches on my XUV Gators in the past and they seemed to work good. Here is the other debate, steel vs. synthetic. I’m looking for a no nonsense plate install too, probably should have the holes for a wide spool winch too. Thanks in advance!

Feels like a trailer hooked up any idea y?

Just got home was going to go for a ride an it feels like I have a heavy trailer hooked up. I tried both high an low same results in high gear won’t go past 15 mph yes I had seat belt on. It sounds like something is dragging but don’t see anything when walking around any idea what or where to start looking? Has a gates belt on just past break in period on belt.

Bumper mounted winch question

I want to mount my winch on a bumper but as much heat as this thing puts out I’m afraid it will overheat. Anyone had any overheating issues with a winch mounted on the bumper especially at high speeds. I have to ride asphalt some between trails. I was considering the wild boar but I don’t see how any air gets to the radiator at all with the bumper and winch.

Extra wheelbase advantage

What are the advantages of gaining 3" of wheelbase with front and rear A-arms? I don’t have enough rzr experience to know. I’ve been riding with a ’15 teryx and a ranger. We haven’t gotten into anything where I’ve noticed their wheelbase helping. We ride a lot of tight woods and I’ve only noticed they have to make a lot of 2 or 3 point turns where I whip right through. The teryx also had a hard time getting over a 3′ tall mound of dirt that I popped right over.

So what’s the advantage. Is it just to fit bigger tires without rubbing? I’d like arched arms but don’t plan to run bigger than 29’s.

900s winch mount

Ok this is probably a stupid question but this is my first RZR. How do you know if the winch mount you buy will fit the winch you buy. Do most winches have same bolt pattern? Ive def decided to go with steel cable VS synthetic line. Any other thoughts would be much appreciated. thanks
