Default highlifter kit & 28" tires

I was skeptical about putting a set of ITP 589 ms on my 2002 500 sportsman 4x4.
I put the highlifter 2" lift with their lift springs on the front & rear, I put the 28 x 9 x 12 up front & the 28 x 11 x 12 out back.

Man, they do not rub, the bike steers better & they dig eat like you aint never seen before on snow mud, & dirt. My best friend has the same bike with the Goodyear raw hides & he is now slobbering over the way my bike rides & looks.

This thing is an animal in 2wd, I went riding last weekend with a few rincon boys, They were shooting up steep muddy hills in 4 x 4 (or should I say 3 wheel drive) & sliding back down. I shot the same hill in 2wd & it went right up it like cake. THey left the Rincons in 4x4 all day. I left mine in 2wd all day, I didn't need 4x4 at all.
The old Rincon boys were just setting around wishing they had a Polaris instead of a 3 wheel drive button pushing machine.

When hitting a water covered mud hole in 2wd it planed on top of the water & plowed on thru the mud. The poor Rhino's & Rincons got stuck in 4x4 when they hit the same hole. I then returned to pull them out with my Polaris.





Run with the bigg dog Polaris boys or stay on the porch.
