Default time for new tires

i'm looking at tires for a 2003 foreman 450. yesterday i put a stick through the back tire. the tires had over 4000 miles on them. i'm looking at a set of 26" dirtdevil XT's, 10" in the front and 12" in the back. what i'm wondering is will i run into any problems running tires that are 1" taller and 2" wider than stock? the tires will be 4"wider than the front rims and 4.5" wider than the back rims. will this be too wide and will they rub? i reely dont want to run into any problems and i need the foreman running ASAP. any one with expierence running these tires? also, would the stock fender flares still catch the mud with wider tires? any help would be appreciated.

I'd also be curious to know about this setup myself. I'm thinking of going 26x 10" wide all the way around on mine. I put in a call to Discount Tire by me and they told me $72 each mounted. Right now, they seem to be in the lead for my business.

The Dirt Devils are a very good tire. Very comparable to ITP Mud Lights but at a cheaper price. The price that Tires-n-Stuff is offering is pretty reasonable and the 26 inchers will be just fine on your Foreman.
