so my gather is 30" tires is the threshold for a lift. 28" maybe 29 0r 30 you can stay stock
Not exactly... 28’s are the threshold (depending on actual tire size) before forward a arms are necessary. The lift is more about ground clearance with the occasional person needing some more wheel well space when they go above 30” tires.

Well JTW gave good info and they are variables to it all. With what I got I could run 31's and maybe some 32's just depending on tire shape and lug size. I stuck with 30's because after my wheel and tire upgrade I added 40lbs to each corner of white pearl but she didn't mind.

Well if your work had one of these you wouldn't want to come home.
Exactly I would stay at work and show them what a newer piece of s*** it was then tell them the cost of getting the damn thing back to running HAHA. Poor Polaris been leading this industry for years and years. Honda just sat back and laughed cause they knew they just needed a few years damn gotta love a no belt system.

Do you know the offset of your bead locker wheels? I just ordered to 12"x8" (4/4 offset) Method bead locker with 28"x9"-12 front and 28"x11"-12 rear. I'm looking for a much wider stance than stock. 2" highlift
OK I checked one of the boxes and my wheels are 0 offset that's why I went with 1 1/2 inch spacers on top of going from 7 inches wide to 10 inch wide tire.

Ummm.... 0 offset would mean the lug nuts stick out past the outer bead. Maybe you mean 3.5 + 3.5 offset as being 0, that is the most common offset. OEM is even 1.5-1.75 offset which is shallow by most standards.

You are correct they are 3.5+3.5 and the box says 0 offset
