The tire gurus should show up shortly or just check back in the morning...You'll get your answers. Plus no need to post twice!

As far as I know they make 14" aftermarket rims for most Utility ATVs. All that matters is the bolt pattern and off set stay the same.
Even if the off set is not the same you can fool with that with wheel spacers. ATV Tire and Wheel Application Chart : ATV Tires Free Shipping : ATV Wheels : Mud-Throwers.com

I,m not a big fan of 14" rim on a 4x4 ATV. With 12" and 10" rims I find I dent up the rims enough on the rough trails.
The more side wall tire cushioning the better.
Low profile tires look good on a Chevy Corvette though.

Look at the chart link, there are more then one style of rim.
For example,one of the few you can get is the Rear 14ss705 and front 14ss703.
The bolt pattern for front and back are both 4/156.
The front off set is 4+2 the Rear is 5+3.
No matter every place that sells aftermarket rims, will have a toll free number and they will make sure you get the rims that work for your ATV.
