Is anyone running wider tires in the back with the same width rim on all four corners? I bought some 29”x9” for the front and 29”x11” for the back, but bought 14”x7” rims on all 4 corners. Anyone have experience with this? Thanks.

That’s what I was hoping, however, I’ve heard that if the tires aren’t the same size ratio as the stock, then it can screw the rear end up when in four wheel drive because the wheels won’t be spinning at the same speed. The stock rear wheels are wider than the stock front causing the rear to kinda squish down and set shorter height wise than the front tires. Just don’t want to screw something up.Ok, the width won't be a problem on the rear. You'll just have a bit more sidewall bulge then the fronts. Do you have the forward arched arms though? 29" will most likely rub with out them, or a lift.

After putting the tires on the rims tonight, because the rear rims are narrower than stock, the rear tires are just a bit taller than the front. Which is still opposite from what the stock wheel were. (Front taller than the rear). This still should be fine to run?Not quite true for our machines.
It’s the diameter that matters.
The stock tires are already narrower in the front than the rear by design even though most air all tires to the same value.
Pictures are coming!That's what we are here for brother!

I doubt it’s any different than factory unless the real diameters of the tires are grossly different. As long as the first two digits on the tire and the rim diameters are the same you should be fine regardless of the width.B

Just so we know it happened! ITP 29” tires and 14” rims 9” wide on front and 11” wide on back. No rubbing whatsoever so far. Haven’t taken it out on the trails, but it handles sharp turns on the road without a problem. Just got it cleaned up today!That's what we are here for brother!

Thanks! And the front sit at about 28.5” and the back sit about 28.75” if I am putting a tape measure to it.How tall are they with a measuring tape?
