I just took the 12" alum C-series rims and 25x10-12/ 25x8-12 Bearclaws off my Kodiak 450, and put them on my wife's '02 Recon 250ES. the rears were VERY close to the flange on the footwell guard. i had to make a small trim with the utility knife and now the rears are good. the fronts are good, except at extremes on turning, there's a very slight inner rub. a 1/4" added on to the steering stops would fix this. I don't think I'll bother, cuz it's not a big deal.

otherwise, they look awesome, and the ground clearance looks huge now. I'd say at least 1-1/2" more. I only ran up and down the street, and up a bank, and the power seems exactly the same, no noticeable difference.

 

pics?

 

it'll take a bit, but i will post some soon.

 

here's the bump.
