I replaced the stock tires on my 2006 Brute 750 with Bighorn Maxxis. The only problem is with the right rear 26x12xR12 ... I can see slight abraisons where it has rubed the gas tank. My question is "what is the solution"?
Spacers? or new wheels? Thanks.

 

Either would work. I am running Maxxis BH with ITP "C" Series 4 wheels and no problems. See tire size in my sig. I also have a set of 27" Mud Lites that do not even come close to rubbing.

 

i have mudzillas on mine i decided to buy spacers, but the stock tires are on wheels so i ido most of my riding on those

 

i had this same question a couple of days ago for my bf650. and nobody had any replies for me. so i did some research. buying rims are pricey but it is probably the more solid way. spacers are very good for the price(the hub style is what i am going to get) the only drawback(that i have found yet) is you now have double the lug nuts to make sure that stay tight. i also read if you do a lot of jumping wheel spacer might not be a good idea.
i mainly use mine for trail riding and i bought some 4 new itps for $180 and did not ask about the back spacing. so now i am trying to find some good 2" spacers i hope this helps you

 

i just put my 1 inch spacers on with 12 in mudzillas plenty of room i don't think i would go with 2 in thats an extra 4 inches of width (stay off tight trails)

 

I ordered the 1" spacers. How's the Copperhead working? I've been through TWO Dynateck's with continued MISSES on my Brute 750.

 

copperhead works great. still plenty of power with the mudzillas on there and even more power with the stockers
