Default Need Polaris Wheel Spacer Info

I put some wider tires on my 2005 Polaris Sportsman 500 HO and they are very close to the tie rods. Looks like some 1 inch wheel spacers might be needed. I know nothing about them and am looking for info on bolt pattern, material (plastic, aluminum, steel). I think the bolt pattern is 4/156 but am wondering if any wheel spacers with a 4/156 pattern will fit on my Sportsman.
Thanx for the help......

Yep, you got the right bolt pattern. Just be careful on how wide you go if you have gates on your trails. I think your Sportsman would end up being 51" wide if you go with 9" wide tires with 1" spacers. The 1" spacers are as narrow as anybody makes them.

Thanx Again...

In wheel spacers there are two main things. #1 is the bolt pattern, you have to order one to bolt onto you size pattern which should be 4/156. So anyone with that size should bolt on and work. #2 is the width you want which is normally from 1" to 2.5". The other options are more for cosmetics or weight differences like steel or aluminum.
