Mud Lite on IPT C Series Wheels:

27x12x12: 27" high
11 1/2" wide
34 lbs

Stock rear wheel and tire - 22lbs


27x10x12: 27" high
9 1/2" wide
34 lbs (not sure why its the same weight but it is)

Stock front wheel and tire - 17lbs

Total of 58lbs more that stock.

Stock height to bottom of footrest - 11 1/2"
new height - 13 5/8"

Height difference of 2 1/4"

Rear differential height of 8 3/4" Didnt measure it stock

My piece of @@@@ digital camera only took 3 poor quality pictures then died on me. Check my sig at the bottom. There are only side by side shots of the front and rear tires and one of the wheel from the side. I did take a bunch of 35mm shots and will post them tomorrow when I get them developed.

I only got to ride about 5 minutes in the yard so it didnt really get a chance to warm up to see if there was much of a power difference. I am going riding saturday so I will post riding results then. One thing I did notice right away was how much easier the steering is. Even at a stop they turn much easier than stock. Start moving slightly and it feels like power steering. This is my first set of aftermarket tires so Im not sure if they are all like this but it feels great to me.

Weather service is calling for a snow storm here in Maryland tonight for 5-8", so hopefully I can give you some info on how they handle in that tomorrow. (If hes right this time)

Lastly, man do they ever look big and mean in person. They look much better in person than in pictures.

 

Sweet...thank for taking the side by side shots. That really puts them into perspective. They look wicked!!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Yea, they really do. I will have some real good shots on there tomorrow

 

can't wait to see a picture of them on your quad. They look sweet

 

Does anyone know how much C-series wheels weigh compared to the stockers? Just the wheels w/o tires installed.

 

stock front are 3.5lbs c series front 8.5lbs
stock rear are 4.25lbs c series rear 9lbs

 

Thanks for the weights. The C-series are nice, but not worth the extra 5 lbs per corner, IMO. I'll stick with the stock wheels.

 

Thats what I thought until I bent my front rim when I barely hit a log. I didnt realize how cheap they felt until I took them off to replace them. I will gladly take the extra weight. I figured once I put on the new exhaust and the new cdi I will have more power then before I put on the bigger tires.

 

I wasn't worried about the power, the extra weight messes up the suspension action badly if you like to ride fast.

 

I never thought about that. Is it much of a prob ? I havent heard anyone mention that before.
