Default Widest tires???

Hey fellows help me out here. Whats the widest tires I can run on stock rims. I have a 07' Sportsman Dlx. The rims I have now are to nice to toss, so I would just like a little wider tires on my rig.

I have a 500ho, 2006 model and I run 26x10x12 front and 26x12x12 rear swamplites. I flipped the tie end rods over and I do not have any clearance issues. With stock rims too.

If you go wider than the 8" stock tires up front, you will either have to flip the tie rod (there is lengthy discussion on this topic in this forum), or purchase spacers (about $75). The 12" rears will fit with no problem, not sure about 14"....
