Default New Tires, Need Help

I have had my Foreman ES for about a year now. I am looking at buying new tires for it. Right now I have

Front: 25 x 8 x 12
Rear: 25 x 10 x 12.

I want to upgrade to

Front: 26 x 10 x 12
Rear: 26 x 12 x 12

Can I do this without getting new wheels, or willl I have to buy new wheels to get these tire sizes?

Thank You Very Much
Mark M

Mark, you will be able to use the same rims.


1st number = tire height
2nd number = tire width
3rd number = rim size.

You can use a wider tire on a narrower rim.

Yes, you can by all means keep the stock rims and mount different tires. Unless you know how to do it however, I've heard it can be a hassle depending on the tire. I myself have never tried do I don't know.
