Will my 09 Rincon rims fit my 01 Foreman. This post was easier than taking one off and figuring it out for myself.

I am considering buying new tires for my Rincon, and want to put the new radials on my 01 Foreman. It may be just as easy to buy new rims and tires and switch the Rincon set to the foreman. (That way I don't have to pay someone with a machine to change them around or wrestle it myself). Plus I think black rims with Mudlites would look sweet on the Rincon.

That would get rid of the plane steel stockers on the Foreman and also improve the handling a bit (the new radials have to be better than the original on the foreman). Plus they look a little better (chrome).

 

Nobody knows if you can do this. I find that hard to believe. I guess I will have to take the wheels off and try.

Thanks

 

I think you will find the dish on the rear wheels is way different.

My advice would be to snag one of the Harbor Freight bead breakers. It makes the job pretty easy. Be prepared for buddies showing up with some beer, and tires and wheels...

 

So your saying that it probably won't work!! That sucks. Thanks Jeffin

 

Yeah. The SRA rear rims have a pretty deep dish on the outside, where the IRS Rincon is dished the other way.

There are always take off rims around for cheap, from folks who put on the bling bling fancy ones (which doesn't make sense to me on a machine that you go out and bash around in the rocks).

Breaking down tires is really pretty easy with the bead breaker (that often goes on sale for like $40). The trick I've found is with stock tires, leave about 4 psi in them. Otherwise the sidewall is so flimsy on them that they tend to collapse and the bead breaker will slip off.

 

Thanks, good info. Will find a bead breaker and give it a go.

 

I have a set of ITP black rims with mudlite radial tires,less than 20 miles on them with nuts, caps, one rim has a small spot of corrosion from salt,about the size of a pencil,they came with the rincon when I bought it. I don't know if I will use them, If someone gives me a fair price I may consider selling them. I live in Wi.

 

Will think about it, but why aren't you using them?

 

It is my wifes quad,I have never had them on,she will never wear the stock ones out and all we do is trail riding. We are in our late 50's.

 

Judge, check your private messages, I just sent you one.
