I bought a used 2009 sportsman 800 HO from a private buyer 2 years ago.
currently it has the aluminum polaris rims on it with 25-8-12 Maxxis on the front and 25-10-12’s on the Rear.
the 2009 800’s owner’s manual says the tires are 26×8-12 and 26×11-12.
So i was just wondering if the previous owner may have put some smaller tires on here than what came with it, or is the owners manual wrong?

One of my front’s sidewall got slashed by a giant boulder over the weekend so i am looking to at least replace the front 2 with something. (also had to order a new/used rim)
thanks in advance — first time messing with tires on an atv.
