I always have run stock tires, however if I keep any of my long enough this time I'll probably use a more highway tread tire as they last much longer when driven on pavement, been seeing so many now who are going that route and claim that hold up many times longer.

That is why you havent seen many issues...Stock polaris front ends dont hold up well to larger mud tires. Can Ams weak spot are rear diffs...they are not shimmed right from the factory and wear out quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
