Bighorns w/ ITP's will be my next & third time tire/wheel combo when WI changes the law for the XP. I want to keep her a stock as possible now because of that issue. I do not want to give the DNR a reason to pull me over. ;-)

what can you put on the stock wheels? I heard these XPs need spacers or something .

Just bent the rear stabilizer bars to make the BH's fit. But I prefer the ITP's over stock. Just a looks issue for me. Nothing else.

Not too sure about bending things. So the XPs will run the ITPs ok?

Yes. Bending is not a issue. Do a search and you will find a write up on it.

Just so you are aware Thor, that the ITP wheels have a much wider stance than stock. If you want to sell your stock wheels, let me know.
