ITP C WHEELS ON POLARIS 500 Sportsman
#1
Has anyone been using the new ITP C wheels on their Polaris Sportsman 500?
Do I need new front or rear tires with these wheels or will the stock tires work?
I've read that the ITP rear wheels provide a wider wheel base with the C wheels - are the front also wider?
Has anyone any expereince with how well they hold up? Are they as durable as the steel wheels? How about corrosion - theres a lot of salt here in Minnesota. No snow - just salt.
Let me know -
Thanks!

I have the ITP C-series aluminum wheels on my 2001 HO. If you're quad came with 12 inch wheels on the front and rear, then you can use your stock tires, but if they came with the 10 inch wheels on the back (like mine and most others that year), then you will at least have to buy new rear tires. If it came with Goodyear Tracker P's, then you will have 10 inch on rear, but if it came with Goodyear Rawhides, then you'll have 12 inch wheels on the rear.
They seem to be plenty tuff, they don't bend like steel does. We don't have salt down here in TN, but I haven't seen any problems with any of them corroding. They do have an offset (1 inch I think) and they will cause you to get more muddy than before b/c they stick out further.
Hope this helps.
