Default Tires and rims

Ok guys need some advice once again, I'm running 27x12x12 outlaws on 12x10 rims on all four corners using almost 2inch spacers on the front, I have in stock 4 front Polaris rims witch I believe are 7 or 8 inch wide I was just wondering if there many cons to switching to theses rims and do the pros out weigh them I'm looking for better tire fitting, and i see alot of southern riders using narrow rims, the wide front tires makes narrow trails next to impossible, thanks for input guys.

Stock Polaris fronts are 6" wide, too narrow I think to mount your 12 wide tires on.

They might mount but won't seat well. Might have to pony up for some narrower front tires which will greatly improve turning on narrow trails.

i wouldn't use stock rims w/ 12" wides as mentioned they would be hard to seal or would break a bread quicker if you hit something. imo
