I was looking at some steel itp rims for my 02 wolverine. The rims are 1.5 in wider offset than my stock rims. I'm going to be studding a set of tires for winter use. I'm wondering how the wider offset will affect the handling and the suspension. Any input would be appreciated.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

If its anything like adding wider rims to a warrior (and it is), then you'll enjoy greater stability and a better ride. Go for it, but if you can spring for aluminum rims it would be a worthwhile upgrade.

 

Like Maddog said the Aluminum is nice as less weight is easier on the motor to spin those wheels. Plus the stability piece is key.

 

if your worried about bending just add an aluminum ring to the rim and weld it on, I did that to mine check my pics, and they work great.
