I am looking at getting some new tires and rims for my wolverine. I have not done anything aftermarket on the machine. I was wondering if anyone had info on weither or not my wolverine will do well with 25x8x12 front ITP MudLite XTR and 25x10x12 rear ITP MudLite XTR. THX

Your tires will depend on the style and terrian while riding. But do keep in mind the rims will need to be .190" not .125" . The extra thickness is for carring the heavier machine. If you need more stability try some wheel spacers.

They will probably do ok for you, but like he said, it all depends on you rriding style. trails, mud, hills... The size will be fine, mine came with 25"s on it and it turned them decent.

im looking for mostly trail riding and mudding with my wolverine

im worried that my wolverine will not have the torque to spin them in the mud.

Im also looking at buying some ITP mudlite AT's or XL's.

Would i be better off just buying some 24 inch tires?

ive decided to go with a smaller tire due to my fear that my wolverine will not have enough power for what i use it for. im now looking around my stock tire size which is around 23 inches and 24 inches. any info on which ones i can buy that have a rim size of 12 inches?

as long as you dont go over 25's youll be fine when you go mudding you mostly use 2nd gear and 1st maybe so it'll be torquey still, go big you wont regret it when you can hammer it in 2nd and pull through some mudholes

25's mudlites looked and worked great on my 03 Wolverine..I would stick to steel rims though

I made 2 youtube videos part 1 and part 2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnnPcNpmb3E for part 1 and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDKJ_E7LYs8 for part 2. i will make more in the future but there is snow on the ground here now so i may have to wait for more vids until the snow clears up.
