Those duals don't look like they are actually connected. Are they? Not just another set of tires stood up next to the rear tires? The spacing between tires looks uneven.

If they are real - what did you use to connect the two wheels? I could get into these on my TRV.

The duals look very impressive.

How's the steering control with duals?

Have you broken any axles with duals?

How much torque drain with duals?

How much loss of breaking power with duals?

How's fast corner tippiness with duals?

Note: To make an ATV more stable in the corners, one widens the front. Making the rear wider makes it more tippy.


Because of the above, don't think I'd try duals on my AC. I've probably go with snow tracks instead.

I really like the duels, must be great in the mud and snow, but they gotta be he!! on a standard 50" wide trail.

The Duels are real. I used square stk to build them. I had a guy build them for me. Belive it or not the duels weigh less then my 29.5's do... Yes there is more stress but it all comes down to (YOU WANA PLAY YOUR GOING TO PAY). If anyone has any stk wheels i'd be willing to lend them out. I have two sets one is for my 29.5's and the other one is for my Outlaws.. Two different kits for Two different wheels. Turning.. It was easier... Like i said i didn't go fast with the kit. Last year i did a mudbog with the kit. I had the duels in the rear and 27/12/12 mudzillas in the frt.. I never ran out of power traction was my problem.. Thats why i need a more aggrasive tire. Axles-I'm running gorillas in the rear. I just added a 650 diff to my 03-so now i have the advantge of a locker like the bigboys.... (Actualy there is a kit to do a swap.. Cost about 850.00.
