I'm really pleased with mine. Not one negative thing to say.

Ive only got 500 miles on mine, other than the a-arm breaking when it was new, no problems, just installed the Kolpin overfenders, like the looks and are made tough, easy to install, only put like 1/2 the bolts in , pretty sure that will be enough original tires suck , put swmp lites on for winter will run the originals again in the summer, Ill have to get my kids to help my dumb--s take the pictures

I have a 2011 sportsman xp 550 eps, i got it just as winter started so it only has about 30 miles on it. The only problem ive had was on my first ride the side wall on one of the tires blew out, so i replaced all of the tires with a set of Bighorn 2.0 tires, otherwise its been great. Now if winter would end so i could go riding i would be happy.

Our 850 LE has been great, 1400 miles with no problems. We ride 2 up at about 500 pounds and have never needed more power in Co. or Utah. Used the Polaris winch 2 times pulling trees off the trail worked fine but would like a set of the Bighorn tires. Wish 1 of mine would blow as I run it on the trailer.

You should be so lucky to blow a tire while putting it on the trailer. When my tire blew i was seven miles from home, and i had to ride home all the way on the flat.

What size Swamp lites did you go with? Do you like them so far, I am thinking about a set?Sure would like to see some pic's, but I fully understand about the picture uploading part.

Went with 27 x 9 - 14 in the front, and 27 x 11 - 14 in the rear, they work great in the snow, just have to be careful, don't wanna use too much throttle, they like to bounce a bit, but that just means ur gettin good traction
