I just got a set of Goodyear Mudrunners and on the side wall it says use a beadlock rim. Is a beadlock rim needed or will my stock rancher ones work ? They are the EMT run flat ones. They had a special on them and were cheaper than the normal Mudrunners Any info will be big help as i would like to get them mounted by this weekend. Thanks to all

 

My Mudrunners are mounted on the stock Polaris rims, Im sure ythe Hondas rims will work the same.

 

The Rancher tires are 24's. Do Mud Runners come in 24 inchers ? The reason I ask is that I was considering Mud Runners but, I couldn't find any listing for 24 inch tires. Only ones I have seen are 25's????

No 24in that i know of so i went with the 25in.. From what i have heard the power loss is miminal and you gain 1 inch or better ground clearance.Plus the traction is improved over the stock Dirthooks. Hopehully will have them mounted tomorrow night and a quick test ride.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

I have 26" regular Mudrunners on my Rubicon, and they don't require a beadlock. The only thing I can say is that the beadlock might be needed to make the run flat capability thing work.

 

In your initial post you were asking if the stock rancher rims would work, so the 25" Mud Runners will mount on the stocker Rancher rims? If so, what size tires did you get front and rear?

They'll work just fine on your stock rims. Where'd you buy em from? I'd like to have had the run flats but I was limited in funding [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

 

So what size Mud Runners you guys have on your Ranchers? 25x8-12 on the front and 25x10-11 on the rear?

Yea, that's what I have anyway. (25x8x12 front 25x10x11 rear)

 

Utah, I picked them up at a wholesale tire shop a few miles from my house that i didn't even know was here. I found their web site doing a atv tire search. Anyway i paid 306 for 2 25-8-12 and 2 25-10-12. I'm using my buddies rear 12in rims off of his 450 foreman. They told me Goodyear was running a special on the emt's cause they wern't selling as fast as they had figured on i guess. Treadepot has about the same price on them and are cheaper on the Non emt ones but, with no shipping i went ahead and got the ones here. Hopefully will get them on tomorrow night and a test ride this weekend. We have had rain here in Iowa 67 of the last 77 days so finding a mud hole will be easy !!! I hope to take some pics of them as soon as i get them mounted and will send some if you like.
