Default WOLVERINE 450 TIRES

i've been ready most of the post on the tires, but it seems as though no-one has come up with the stock size for re-placement, i don't want to loose top end and go with a bigger tire, it seems as though the 23" tires are hard to find, i would like to keep it as stock as possible, does out there make at23x10-12 and at23x8-12, any help would be great, thanks

Swamp Fox's and AT489s are going to be the only stock size replacement tires other than the factory Maxxis tires.

yeah, the only stock replacement size tires are AMS Swamp Foxes, Carlisle AT489s, the old 350 Wolverine stock tires (not a bad looking tire) and the stock Maxxis Lynx Radial. I think what i'm gunna do it put a big tire clutch kit on and some 25" Mudlites. maybe i wont lose too much top end. i think il actually gaina bit of low end snap out of the line even with the mudlites.

Really you might gain some top end when you put larger tires on... the same as gearing up a sport quad. My '95 350 doesn't have a problen turning 25's.

yeah i would think you would gain top end to but it stays about the same or a little bit lower because it doesnt really have enough top end power to turn them fast enough and get up to speed fast enough. maybe if you were gunning it on a straight away for a couple minutes you would gain top speed, but not much

Do what I did... Jet kit, you will need it if you don't already have it.

yeah, im gunna get one with my pipe, the hmf pipe im getting comes with the jets i need, but im gunna get the dynojet kit eventually after that. a jet kit doesnt do anything by itself, and my filter doesnt give me that much more flow, lol.

yeah, i might get a quadworks power kit, which has a k&n filter and a jet kit. but honestly, k&n air filters don't give that much more flow then uni and twin air ones. plus, the foam filters filter better and cost less. its not like k&n's are bad, but i have better things to spend 55 bucks on. lol

dunlop make tires that are the stock size. fronts are the KT403 and the rears KT407. I am going to buy these when my stockers wear out.

Here is what they look like.
