Default ITP 12X7 wheels on 450 griz how much backspace?

I don't prefer my wheels to be sticking way out from under the fenders. The stock wheels are 6X1 spacing. ITP's are almost all 5X2 so that means the 10" stock tires would be an Inch further out. When I go to 12" I now have 2" further out.

Does anyone have this 12" tire on a 12X7 ITP wheel that can give me some feedback on how far out they are from fenders if at all?

ITP makes the SS106 alloy wheel which is a 6+1 wheel same as stock size. However I prefer the style of the black Sportlock much better if it fits well.

This is a problem I ran into. It seems all aftermarket rims for the 450 Kodiak and Grizz (I believe) are a 5+2 offset. If the Grizz is like the Kodiak, it makes the ATV 4 inches wider total. 2 on each side. It made my 10" tires stick out past my overfenders about 1" which meant plenty of mud on my back. I eventually went back to stock rims (which don't look near as nice as aftermarket).
If the Grizz is different from the Kodiak, someone will post. I know on the ITP website it actually tells you that for an 05 & 06 Kodiak, it will widen you four inches.
Hope this helps.

What about overfenders? They'll go a long way towards covering the ITP's. I'm talking about these Here

The mud protection on my Wolverine is pitiful. With my stock tires/wheels, I used to get covered from the waist down. With my ITP's and BearClaws, I get covered from head to toe. No floorboards on my ride...

Again I'm not 100% sure of the Grizzly but with my Kodiak, the tires stuck out past the overfenders 1"

I have on 07 Grizzly 450 and they stick out past the overfenders pretty bad. Without overfenders it would be real bad. Check out my pics page for some pictures of em.
