looking to put some bigger tires on my kingquad looking to go upsize i was hoping to go to a 27 but i wasnt sure if that was possible without a clutch kit and also what about a 12 inch rear and 10 inch front tire? and help is greatly appreciated

 

27-12-12 & 27-10-12 shouldn't be a problem, we have 28" Outlaws on our KQ with no clutch kit and no problems

 

Bigger tires was something I first wanted to do with mine, but after considering everything that would be affected, and the cost, I decided to go with a better and little more aggressive tire than stock. My suggestion is no more than a 26 inch. Although the 450 may handle a larger tire ok, the wear and tear on the bike will certainly be greater. A clutch kit will help so you wont lose power. Remember, bike will be higher and so will your center of gravity. Larger tires weigh more, and you will be putting them on steel wheels, not aluminum. Suzuki designed the KQ to operate well within certain limitations. Just keep that in mind. Good Luck!!

 

HOw do I delete this duplicate post

 

after thinking about it myself i think im going to go with a 26 because i want a little extra ground clearence also but i might just use a 25 inch tire with a real agressive tread

 

Another suggestion............radial tires, more ground surface contact. Check out this link http://www.atvpt.com/productreviewindex.htm#86908269 You can even call the owner of this place.

 

I wouldn't go any bigger than 26's.........................just a thought.

These are 26" Bighorns on a KQ 700
