Default New wheels on my Hawkeye

I finally got my rims mounted on the quad. I was worried there was too much black, but I think it turned out great. IMO completely changed the look of the Hawkeye.

Wow, that's a great looking ATV. The rims and tires definitely dress it up nicely and make it stand out amongst other Hawkeyes.

The wheels are 12X7, and the front tires are 12X8, the rears are 12X10's

I am wondering if I could now fit a pair of 12X10's on the front.

i just tried to mount some 12x7 ITP wheels on my 08 400HO and the factory 24x8 front tires were narrower than the wheels once mounted? How do yours fit?

That's the exact reason I'm wondering if 12X10" tires will fit the front. Looks like the rim's lip will take a beating since it is even with the sidewall of the tire.

I curious as to why Polaris says the front stock rim is 12X7 when it is actually a 12X5" rim. The rear stock rim is a 12X10, not a 12X8 either.
