Just picked up my 700-4. How many have already installed bigger tires and power steering? If so I would like some input.

Welcome Mike, welcome to the club!
Ya almost everyone has installed tires. 26 or 27's seem to be the popular choice.

I don't have PS on mine. but I drove one. WOW..
Several have it installed and will recommend it as the top mod you need to do.
Just think. Being able to turn it in diff lock, one handed, is like a blessing.

I have 28" tires and power steering. They both are at the top of my list.

Also look for a set of fender flares. It will throw mud in your face when you put bigger tires on.

What Joey said, after having it the EPS is always going to be an option or an accessory I add. 28s are about all you will fit without the likelihood of rubbing. Fender Flares are needed.

I guess we should mention that a lift is needed for 28" tires.

Did you guys all go to all 4 tires the same size? What widths yall running?
Primary use of my rig is working around my property, so not too big of tires.
going to start looking for PS kits right away.
Keep the ideas coming, Mike

I went with 28x10-12 all around, SuperATV EPS, try Honda of Russellville, they had the best price when I got mine. SuperATV themselves went up on the price.

I went 28-9-12 in the front and 28-11-12 in the rear. I like this because it keeps the mud off of me and the kids but 2 down sides are it creates a problem when you talk about a spare tire. and 2 in the mountains it gives you a more tippy feeling in the front end. Flat ground I would do it again in a heart beat and just bit the bullet and buy two spare tires.
