| well, i decided to try a set of Interco Reptile Radials on my stock LE rims and shed the maxis what ever they are. the fronts are 27X9X12 and the rear are 27X11X12. apparently (duh) the off set is not the same on the Polaris LE rims as the off set on the ITP 14" rims with 26X9X14 bighorns upfront and 26X11X14 bighorns in the rear. i have already cut the motor mount for the ITP& bighorns so that isnt the issue. anyone know what spacers i need and what size and the best place to purchase them. | |

| Jetdriverx, I'm getting ready to order a set of 27" reptiles and happen to see your post and i have a couple questions? Did you not like the way the radials preformed or just want something else tire wise and what offset do i want to go with on the ITP wheels? Thanks for any info! I ride this mostly in WV on rocks, hard pac and some mud and snow! 09 LE | |

I have 14" ITP rims with 26" bighorns on my rzr. i wanted to use the 27" reptiles with my stock 12" LE rims and when i mounted them the rear tires rubbed the frame. i would have needed spacers to use the LE rims. i figure between the cost of the spacers and what i can sell the stock LE rims for i can buy another set of rims, which i prefer 14" over 12" and dont have any reason why, other than i like the look. the Reptiles are now on my sons 2010 Grizzly 450 mount on 12" ITP rims and yesterday was the first real ride on them. he had no problems going through mud, he says they clean out great. If you go to ITP's web site the have a a break down of what rims to use on different makes and models. no matter what you buy larger than stock size tires you will have to cut the motor mount on the right side. not by much but still need to trim the mount down. i do think someone sells a different motor mount for larger tire applications but i have not had any issues since trimming my motor mount. | |

One of our members...Big Hoss...can show you how to turn the motor mount around and add a new bracket....giving you all kinds of clearance.... | |

i just took a sawsall and cut the bracket to make it clear. i'm sure HRR or RZR-JOE could tell you what bracket to use if you wanted to replace it. maybe it was Gadget that chimed in about an aftermarket bracket. | |

| Yea Gary or Bubba mentioned something about it either way i think i'm gonna go ahead and order the 27's on ITP 108's and go from there. I reckon i just need to eyeball the RR and cut it like you mentioned. I also have H/L springs and gonna put back on 2" lift so maybe that will help also. | |

if you have offset rims and use 2" spacers....you should not have to mess with the motor mount.... | |

when you put a lift on it actually gives you less width.... | |

| It depends on which one you get. The max should do it. I know mine are heavy on the offset. I could measure. |
