Look at the sizes on http://www.etrailerpart.com/812wheeltire.htm go to a trailer supply store to buy the tire. Look on the net, might be cheaper.

I change tires myself alot. Trailer tires included. I do believe they would work. The 20.5x8.5x10 tire might do the trick on the back since it is so wide. the most common one is load range C. You want to hunt down load range A or (B), since they are cheaper and have thinner sidewalls. I have these tires in load range C and they seem a little stiff for an ATV. Also guage the tire pressure by the amount of pooch. Don't pump them up hard or you will be driving on rocks. Maybe even stick with 5psi.

there are several places that sell 14" steel wheels with all season radials mounted to them... Dennis Kirk, Cabella's, etc... as far as mounting on your wheels, you'd probably be talking trailer tires, & most would be sized with a much smaller O.D. than what your current tires are...
