Default 94 fourtrax 4x4 tire question

The stock size of this 4 wheeler is 23's on the front and 24's on the back. Will it hurt to put 25's all the way around since it may have a differant gear ratio.

Since it was designed to operate in 4x4 with 23/24 tire combination, I would think installing tires not of that ratio may perform poorly.

25/24 might be ok.

Uhhhh....don't you have that backward???? On that model, the smaller tires need to be in front/larger in rear. This makes the back's effective gearing just a little higher than the front, and because it is full time 4X4 that makes the steering lighter so you don't have to fight it all the time.

A Warn 424 is a great idea! It will make it selectable 2wd/4wd....
