do you have to replace tires at original size or can you go wider or taller

 

You can go wider as long as you dont rub. Some spacers can help with that. You can also go taller, but you have to keep the fronts 1 inch taller than the rears in order for the 4x4 to work properly, assuming that you have a 4x4. I wouldnt go over 25 inches taller because the scram doesnt have a low gear.

 

Is it 4wd?? If it is the answer is yes and no. The 4wd models you can change, but you must keep the height ratios the same. The front tire must be 1 inch taller than the back, for example the facory size is 23/7/10 front 22/11/10 rear. You can change to a say 21/7/10 front and 20/11/10 rear and you will be ok. With a 4wd. 2wd doesn't matter. Width shouldn't cause any problems either.

 

yes it is 4x4 thats what i was wondering about the front must be 1 inch taller thanks

 

Fronts & rears do not have to be kept at a 1" difference. You can run the same size all around and you'll never notice the difference, I've been running 22's all around for over a year.

That is a good looking Scrambler Kevin. That is funny though, because the engineers at Polaris swear up and down that it will screw up the 4wd if the rears aren't allowed to slip 1/5 of a turn before the 4wd engages. I have seen a link somewhere on this, will see if I can find it.

 

You can run the same size front and rear. Sometimes I run 25's and sometimes I run 28's.

 

There is some leeway in the Polaris system. Instead of slipping 1/5, it may slip 1/4 or 1/3 of a turn with the wheels the same size, but I have never noticed the difference and I personally think it looks a lot better without 23's on the front.

The only thing I would not recommend is going more than 1" difference such as 20's on the back and 23's on the front. At that point you will be in constant 4WD and will put a lot of strain on the 4WD components.

I agree with Kevin,i ran 4 sand paddles on my scrambler that were 22 inches tall for 2 years with no problems.Later.

 

Is that true for slipping the rears on pavement while the 4wd is engaged or have you ever tried it? Just curious.
