im confused,what size is stock on the machine? a 26x9x12 is not that big of a tire. To make sure were on the same page ronsfun you are saying the wheel is 26 inches tall, 9 inches wide, and is on a 12 inch rim. Now kodiak450 is making it sound like its a 12 inch wide tire on a 9 inch rim. in this case,yes its big and beefy and wont turn very well and will most likely rub. My understanding that stock is 25x8x12 which means the 26s are not much bigger, same size rim only 1 inch wider(or half inch wider on each side, however you want to look at it),and 1 inch taller( which means half inch more ground clearance). I dont have a polaris so i cant say much,but im trying to help figure this out with you guys. I have an arctic cat 700 with 28x10x12 on all 4 corners and it drives perfectly fine with out rubbing,of course they are both different machines but a 10 inch wide tire handles very well for me. So a 9 inch wide tire should do just fine for you. Sorry for the long post, just trying to get things figured out.
