No he is not sure beacuase you cant. Unless you get wheel spacer you can not run under 11inch rims Thjey will hit your brake calipser.. Plus why would you by those expencive rims to go do mud.. Its like buying a nascar to do sand dunes...Timber wolf stock rims are 11 inch if i am correct and the same bolt pattern..... Good luck and try to stay small in sizes... You will go faster and be lighter.. Mudlights would be the best but im not sure igf you can go a inch bigger and stuff.

Timberwolves run 10" rims, not 11", so you weren't correct. Who cares bout mud if you clean your ride after? They still look great, and quote this, are lighter significantly to the steel stockers. So it ain't all bout looks, but performance as well with not much more of the cost so why go to steel when you have to switch rims anyhow? There aren't many tires to choose from that run 23" tires and 12" rims, it's the most rare tire size you'll find on a quad. For the difference, I'd run an aluminum 12" C-series which you can get with a 25" tire and get intake/exhaust mods and rejet it to compensate for the power loss. The 23's balloon so bad at top speed on the rappy anyhow that 25's won't hurt your top speed much at all if not help it. Mud lites are alot more of a all around tire for mud and trails than the chinsy stockers. If having c-series rims on are that bad to mud machines, don't check out ITP's site or what half the 4x4's are running for bigfoot style tire kits, cause I guess Glamis is getting a crap load of Daytona 500 cars on their way! Get with the times, those rims are on all dun up monster 4x4's not just for looks, but lighweight performance to compensate for the bigger heavier tires!!!

My Wolvy close to stock top speed was 56-58 mph. As far as the 10 inch wheels I don't think they will clear the disc brake set up. Most of the 10 inch wheels on Yammys were on drum brakes. I run a Maxxis All-Trak tire that is called a 25" but measure out to be just a fuzz under 24". I used to run 25" Dunlops and when I went to the Maxxis I could tell I gained some bottom end power. The pipe and air box mods helped so I don't feel like I lost any top end speed.

Your 5 Second memory span must be up, read my last post, I told him to run 12" C-Series wheels with 25" tires and compensate for the larger diameter by gaining power and throttle response with some mods. Grow up, I never said once that 10" rims would fit, just that if you wanted the ITP Mudlites in 23" you'd need a 10" rim. Find a quote in this thread of me saying that a 10" rim would fit a Wolverine? When your done trying to argue and make others look bad but making youself look worse in the process your gonna get passed by these shiny c-series sported quads cause your stuck in the times with your steel clunker rims wasting HP trying to turn them when you could have Aluminum rims for half the weight! He can be turning 25" tires with lightweight aluminum rims with a few bolt on mods easier than you turn your 23" tires with your steel rims! He won't have a problem keeping them shinny even when he runs in mud cause one quick splash in a creek will get the mud off since they are now clear coated. And they don't cost anymore than a factory steel rim, get a quote from your dealer how much your stock wheel would cost as a replacement and a quote for one of ITP's C-series rims in the same size!

I never said anypoint that they would definitely fit, I said changing the profiles of the tires would affect the handling trademarks the quad was designed for in order to run ITP's mudlites which are only available in 10" rims for a 23" tall tire. There are always offsets that would compensate anyhow. Have you tried them all anyways? Do you know for sure that not one 10" rim made out there won't fit the Wolv, not even the most extreme dish out? Maybe you should check into what you say before you try to slam others and say that I don't know what I'm talking about cause it positively won't fit like you said in the message earlier.
