Default XP wheel offset question

I blew my rear wheel on my last ride. I have been searching for a used one but have not had any luck & can not justify the cost of a new OEM vs aftermarket.

Who makes a wheel that's offset is closest to the factory one? I have has the ITP prior but felt the rears were way to wide at 52+ inches with ITP TerraCross tires and sold them.

Also what if I just use the same front offset on all 4 wheels? Can it be done with the 2 different tire sizes? That should at least give the quad the same width all the way around like stock.

Thanks

To my knowledge the only aftermarket wheel with the stock offset for the XP is like $600 each or something crazy. I saw a post on here a while back about them. That being said you are stuck with stock wheels if ou want the same offset, all the aftermarket wheels have offsets for the non xp atvs.

Your best bet would be to check Craigslist or even E-Bay

I have been looking with no luck. I took my wheel in to a shop that repairs fire trucks. They said they would be able to fix it for me for a cost of $40. The welder said he is going to cut a clean hole, weld a new piece and grind it down so you do not see the welds. Cost of $40. I should have it back tonight. I am going to still keep my eyes open for a extra front and rear tire/wheel just in case this ever happens again.

sounds like a pretty good deal for prepping and welding alum. I would just look for a front wheel and tire, that way you only have one wheel to store and it would fit on front and back of machine. The rear wheel would only fit on the rear. Everyone I ride with has some sort of spare tire carrier we made up, we all carry a front tire with us, just in case
