Welcome to the forum.
Just one question.
Why different height tires front & back?

Thanks!

All the 1991-1995 Suzuki King Quad 300's have smaller front wheels. It's the way Suzuki designed them. It's kind of an annoyance too because they used two different bolt patterns on non-standard rim sizes too. 11x6 rim with a 4 on 140 pattern up front and a 12x7 rim with a 5 on 160 bolt pattern out back. I can't find ANY aftermarket wheels to fit 'Ol Suzy!! Was lucky to find some Kenda Bearclaws!!

Welcome to the forum fellow Suzuki owner!
My 2000 quad runner is the same way. Smaller tires up front. Bigger in the rear.

That would sure eliminate any option of changing tire heights.
The front/back ratio's would never match up.
