Default bigger tires effect on power steering???

what does everyone think about the new 700's power steering handling the aftermarket tires??? im sure it would make it work alittle harder, but will it hold up?? i wonder if yamahas engineers factored in the most popular upgrade when they designed the system.

ya, My buddy is a yamaha engineer working on the 700 pooject and I told him about this and he told me if you put aftermarket tires on the 700 20% heaver than stock the wheels will snap right off and the quad will be junk..........

Im sure it will have very litle effect and if any thing just make the steering a bit harder, Just like on a truck.
