Hi all

bought this machine cheap a month ago and got it running great. Now I am trying to put new tires on it. Can't find any. Any idea where to go?
new rims?
thank you

 

25 x 10 x 12 and 25 x 8 x 12 are about the most common ATV tyres you can ask for. Any ATV repair shop should have them, also I would guess tyre shops and agricultural tyre specialists will all be able to supply them.

 

My rears are 25x10x10. I read somewhere the rims have a 3 inch offset i need to keep. There are no real good atv shops near by. I found a set of rims on ebay but they said they were 2 inch offset

 

Strange, the 2000 Grizzly 600 used 25 x 10 x 12. However 10" rims were once common so shouldn't be too difficult to get tyres for them, just limits the range of tread available. I know Kawasaki Mules used 10" rims. If you are changing all four, you could go down to 24" external on them all, they may be more easy to get than 25"

Just checked my UK supplier and they have 24 x 9.5 x 10 and 24 x 10.5 x 10 and 24 x 11 x 10 so I would go for one of these on the rear and 24 x 8 x 12 on the front. Wider may hit bodywork or exhaust so be careful if going for 11" wide.

 

From what I gave seen i am better off just changing the rear rims from 10 inch to 12 inch. Then I can get a bunch of different tread. The problem I am having is what I read there is a 3 inch offset with these stock rims and that's what the new 12 inch rims would need. Alot of threads/people said don't use spacer blocks. Get the right rims. I can only find 2 inch offset rims. Does anyone know where I can get the correct rims?

 

You're overthinking the room here. Do you have stock rims? If so, get an 8" wide front and a 10" wide rear tire that will fit a 12" diameter rim. They didn't come with anything bigger stock. Hit Dennis Kirk website. Grab a set of original Bear Claws. Great tire, not expensive. If you want a good radial, get a Bear Claw HTR. Best radial tire for the money. 25x8x12 front, 25x10x12 rear. If you just want to know your offset, go to Dennis Kirk or Rocky Mountain and act like you're buying tires/rims. Enter the information for you 4wheeler, and it will tell you what offset you need for it. Whether or not you buy anything from them or not, there's your source to find what you're looking for. If your rims aren't destroyed, just use the same ones. Even if you had 12" wide tires, you aren't finding a 12" wide rim to fit them on. Those will go on 7-8" rims all day. For stock tire sizes, the rims that came with that machine are going to work all day long with whatever tire you get. The problem you run in to is when you get super tall tires (27" tall or higher) and try to clear fenders. The Grizzly 600 had some big fender wells too. Probably would take a 27" tall tire without any rub, at least in the rear.

Your factory wheels were 12" diameter front and rear. Thats the last number in the measurement - 25x8-12 or 25x10-12. Whatever you get for a 12" rim fits that wheel

 

"My rears are 25x10x10."

That is what he wrote, which is why he can't get 25" OD tyres for it.

 

The rear stock tires are 25x10x10. Thats the problem. Can't find those tires let alone a good tread.. i need to find 12 inch rims with the correct offset or switch to 25x11x10 but i don't know if that will mess the 4 wd up

 

It is the 25" OD that is important for the 4WD as long as the fronts are also 25" OD the width being 11" doesn't matter on the rears, if they clear the exhaust and plastics, but at only 1/2" wider either side, they should clear.

 

The 11 is only width? Doesn't affect the hieght?
