Hey RED800, welcome to the Connection, and congrats on the new 850 coming your way.

Anyhow, yes this has been discussed already, and I don't think the tires will work on the back without spacers. There are a couple good threads on that subject in the Polaris forum.

 

do spacers sacrifice anything? do i need certain size?. gonna ride trails and some mud, tughill area

 

oops, tire size will be 26x11x14 for rear 26x9x14 for front. bighorns

 

1" spacers will work fine for adding those Horns on the stock wheels if you want to leave everything else stock..you might need to turn up the springs a notch to compensate for the added leverage if you notice the rear seeming soft after adding the spacers....we'll be waiting for your to get her home!

 

thanx HO

 

Welcome RED800.
I'm currently running Big Horn 2's on my XP with the stock rims.
You will need to run spacers on the rear for clearance of the swaybar.
PM me for info on the spacers.You could also search for my post on the BH2's
I have pictures in my profile,just click the camera under my avatar.

 

very nice triplggg, what are your exact size tires? i thought i heard some one say the bighorns run large, like a 26" is close to a 27". u like the bighorns so far?

 

Thanks!
They run about a 26.5" on the OD.I running the same size that your looking at,except I have the BH2's.
So far all I've done is plow abit with them.I'm looking forward to hitting the trails soon....

 

what are bh2's
