Why would they slope in on a straight axle ? If it does that then it will be sloped on a IRS as well due to every hub should be straight up and down when sitting still otherwise it will wear a tire weird.

You can order those for pretty much any quad on the market now... they're just an ITP C-7 style rim whitch was one of their premier modles of rims. They've spiced up the look by adding a polished or anodized ring around the outside.

If you are going to put them on a wolvie with a SRA the offset on the rear rims will be a touch deeper to accomodate the shorter axle lenght. Just like the earlier model 400 Kodiak SRA.

I had one with the SRA and my old ITP rims would not fit on my new 450 with IRS. Well they would bolt on no problem but the deeper dish offset on the rear made the tires stick out so far that it looked like a farm tractor.

Any bike with IRS needs to have the shallow offset all the way around front and back, same rims. The SRA needs to have the shallow on the front and deep on the back.

I think he was talking about the inset of the wheel not the camber.

That's exactly what I was talking about!!!

I tried myself to take the C-Series wheels I had on my 02 Kodiak and put them on my 07 but like I said, it looked like a f@*kin' farm tractor!!! Eh?!

Don't worry though ctate... I never doubted your "Yamintelligence"!!! LOL!!!

You know you got my vote for the "Mayor of Yamaville".

Keep on sprayin' eh?!
