Default Rim size?

Will my 10" back rim off of my 99 Sportsman fit a newer model 2010 and up?
Thanks in advance

if the new ones(2010 and up) have a 4x156(i think that is what they are) bolt patten then they should.

The bolt patter never changed. Here is a good chart. ATV Tire and Wheel Application Chart : ATV Tires Free Shipping : ATV Wheels : Mud-Throwers.com

It will... The only difference is the offset. I am not sure about the "Value" line up but the XP chassis has a different offset

Thanks the reason I`m asking is because I`m tired of braking cv joints (5 since September) and being completely covered in mud every time I go out. the way I see it is if I don`t have the tires to get me through something I`ll take the chicken route. Don`t get me wrong I want to play but cv joint after cv joint is getting expensive and I need tone it down a bit. I have a fellow interested in a trade for my mud lites on rims for his stockers on rims he has a 2011 sportsman ( Im not sure of the size) . I just needed to know if the rims will interchange.

I don't think they will if the brake rotor is on the wheel a 10'' won't clear the caliper. If the rear brake is still on the transmission then it will.

The rear brake rotor is at the tranny not even close to the back wheels.

Thanks everyone for the help, Looks like I`ll just have to get less aggressive tires if I want to keep the cv joints intact. I didn`t think I was that hard on the machine but 5 cv joints since September I`m thinking the cv`s are not up to the abuse and punishment I`m going to through at it. I wonder if the 850`s or bigger machines will stand up to my style of riding? I enjoy most the technical stuff, while not being afraid to giving a little more than necessary throttle to make it to the other side.

Hey TLC, I just looked at my uncle's machine 04.5 500 sportsman and the rear brake is on the rear hub not the transmission! I know on the older ones it is on the tranny I have owned a few. But the newer ones they moved. I would think they left it there on alll the new ones although I am not 100%. Just wanted to let you know that on some of them are on the hub.
