just wondering, would i run into any problems if i put 26 inch tires on a stock foreman ES? also, could i go with 10" wide in the front and 12"wide in the rear on the stock rims without a lift or any other mods? also, does anyone have any good/bad opinions on dirtdevil XT tires?

 

I put 26 in Black waters on a 2002 Honda 350 E.S. Rancher mounted on 12x7 atp delta steel rims They work just fine But could use a little more engine power in 4th and 5th gear. On a Foreman there should be no problems.
Ride on Keep safe.

 

I have 26 inchers on my Foreman Es.....no problems. I have 10" on the front, and 12" on the rear.

 

You can even run 27's if you feel like it. 26's fit without problem.

 

so does anyone know of any cheap power upgrades to help keep these tires spinning in the deep stuff? i would love to get a pipe and the works, but money wont allow that. filter? jet kit?

 

If you get the DD's X/T post some pictures. I am think about getting them on my Foreman. I was going to get 589's but they've jumped up in price a bit. I don't really want the Mudlites. So that leaves the Mudrunners and DD's. DD's are cheaper.

 

It may change your speedometer / odometer readings a littlle. Any one got experinece with this?

 

I put the 26" Dirt Devils on my 04 Rancher 4x4 AT and have not had any problems with clearance, I have noticed some power loss due to the added size but not much. I am happy with the Dirt Devils riding mostly trails with the ocassional mud hole, they also did well in the snow.

 

It changed my seedometer and odometer about 10%, but now it is right on with my GPS. I guess it was off a little to begin with.

 

so can i run 10" tires on the front 8" rims and 12" on the 10" back rims? i belive that i can, but i can never be too sure.
