Default 22"s on raptor??

Will 22" realtors fit ok on stock raptor rims??

If i get a bike this month i'll need better tires then the stock for the snow, so i guess realtors are gonna get the nod. Are the 22s a straight bolt on? do i need to change sprokets or anything?? I'll prob just leave the stock tires in the front. Thanks. Oh can you go bigger then 22s??

If you are going to 22" on the rear I would at least go to a 42 or 43 tooth rear sproket, or go down to a 12 tooth front sproket.

I am pretty sure they will bolt right up. You will not have much clearance between your heel guards and the tire but you should be fine. The 12 in the front will diffenatley will help with the gearing. As for the install you really should learn to wrench on it yourself to save some cabbage.

Scotts88 you need to learn to do some of the wrenching on your own Raptor.

1) You will save money
2) Better satisfaction of doing it yourself

I would suggest buying a manual and start reading it. Belive me I am not trying to bash you in any way. The rear wheels on a Raptor are 9" so the 22" tires you buy will have to be 22X10 or 11X9 to work on the rear wheels.

Everyone is with me when I say the dealer will rape you if you take it to them.

Cool..i was just thinking maybe i could get htem to throw it in if i buy it from them or somthing like that. Im sure i could do it myself..hell i've done heads/intake swap on my car..sure i could change a sproket! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

so would the 12front do or would it be best for the 12/42 combo??
