Yeah that's what im thinking of doing also.
I thought that's what you had going was 4 fronts but I always forgot to ask.
30/10r12 ?
My first set of evos I was running 2 front wheels and 2 rear wheels. I busted a sidewall on one of the front wheels that had accidentally been put on the rear by me or my son. Anyways I bought a new tire and put it on a rear wheel thinking that's what I needed. Long story short I ended up running 3 rear wheels for about 2500 miles. I guess the 1 inch spacers I had on the front allowed me to run the rear tire on the front. I like the 10" wide tire on the 6.5" wide front wheel better than I do the 10" tire on the 8" wide rear wheel.

Yeah I remember looking at your rig and I like the 10" on the front rims also.
You buy the tires yet? I started to look around and found them on RMATV for $700 free shipping. That sound about right?

How tall do they actually measure at what psi?
I’ll have to measure them tomorrow. I know right now I’m running 16-17 psi. It’s enough room in there to add more air if need be. How ever it’s about as close as I want it. Check out this pic.

It's gonna rub on the trail. Try running 12 psi. It will ride a little smoother and be a little bit shorter. Maybe even 10 psi.

Good info. Thanks dude
Yeah looks like you have about a inch or so clearance now, once you hit the trail and compress you'll most likely rub plenty. I'd think about them offset a-arms soon

Did you all order the heavy duty ball joints with the SATV a arms? Or reuse the ones you have?

If you feel like spending about $300 then go for the HD ball joints. Like @TripleB said I came in right at $108 with free shipping for all 4 new one ball joints and 2 spare tie rod ends.

I agree. For that price you can replace them a few times and still come out good. I just noticed SATV ask when buying the AArms if you want their balls joints or not. I’ll do you you and buy the $108 set. Thanks for the help.
