Default My 26" Bighorns on type 5 made my 800 to wide!!

I've been told that the stock backspacing on my 800 is a 4+3. So I order 26" Bighorns on ITP type 5 with a 4+3 backspacing. I just got them yesterday and there is no way they had the same backspacing. My 800 in front is 46" wide. With the Bighorns on, I'm now at 49" wide in the front. Way to wide for the woods racing at ***** to the walls pace. Is there any rims out there that won'y make me so wide? If not it looks like I will have to use my stock rims if I can't find any. Now I have $650 worth of tires and rims with caps and lugs that I can't use. Manufactors need to sell wheels that are stock width. Not everyone want to get wider, especially since the new crop of atv's are getting wider from the get go. Just venting a bit.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]
