P1000 Superatv 1.5" A arms and 30's P1000-5

[JoeyL]

Has anyone run the SuperATV 1.5" forward A Arms with 30x10 tires? Their site says max tire size is 28" but the stock tires are 27" so this doesnt make any sense. I called them and they stuck with the 28" giving a bunch of general excuses.
Anybody have this setup?
I want to try to run 30's on my 2020 Deluxe w stock wheels.
thanks

I have 30's on mine with just the SATV arms. I can make it scrub at full steering lock and full stuff. Nothing that bothers me.

It's going to depend on the tire being used. Few "30" tires actually measure 30", most are closer to 28-29".

You might need a lift as well.

It’ll work fine..

Do you just have fronts or did you do the rears too?

You HAVE to do the fronts.. but you’ll want the rears too.

Completed the front. Just way over budget on mods trying to be selective on next steps. You guys are great at helping me spend my money

I have 30’s with forward front and rear. You’ll be good and should fit no problem. I’d recommend some wheel spacers as well for a bit more clearance and stability.

I got the SuperATV forward arched arms on the wifes P1000-5 and 31" MotoHavoks and they work fine. Go for it.

 

[JoeyL]

Thanks for all the info guys. I will go ahead and give it a shot. Probably just in the front at first.

I have 30" on mine 30x10x14 Terrabites and no problems. Only rub when I stand it on its nose, but just a light touch then. I have the fronts and rears and spacers.

 

[SuperATV]

Go for it. Like other have said, it'll rub a little but if you don't care...we don't either.

I ran just the fronts for about 8 months. I now have both. My tires do measure 31 though...

Which tires are you running and did you need to do the repairs, or was that just to help with clearance?

Sorry one more question can you tell a loss in any power from that size tire?

It depends on the weight... but I can assure you you’ll have a noticeable loss of power if the tire weight increases much. I’m running 30” Berserkers and I cuss them often in technical slow stuff.

Thanks for the info, I have read that on some other post you have made. Is it weight or diameter that is causing the loss of power?

It’s mostly the tire weight... several of us have similar setups with variation of tires and mine is the worst. I LOVE the tires... but the weight of the 30 is a bit much.

Well just did my part to keep SATV in business. Front and rear A arms, set of 30x10 Warrior XTs, and a windshield on the way.

Thanks again for all the feedback guys.

Just to let you know, installing the SATV 1.5" rear A-arms does over extend your stock axles at maximum extension. They will clang, but mine haven't broken yet in almost two years. When they do I'll replace them with their heavy duty ones. The A-arms are a very good upgrade. If you don't change your gearing with the 30" tires you might want to run it in low range on anything but level ground to make your trans last longer. I did the 15% 4" portals (SATV) which will allow you to run up to 32" tires (really 31.5"). I went with 30" (really 29.5") to give a little gear reduction over stock setup. With the portal hubs you also get a upgrade in braking power as it comes with 10" rotors over the stock 8" ones. The caliper fit on mine need some modifications to make it right, but well worth the time, trouble, and money to get the added height, gear reduction, and braking power. And yes with stock rims you'll need 1.5" wheel spacers. Does put a little more strain on you wheel bearings, but mine haven given me trouble. It does make it wider, and stabler too. Also the portal hub require a little more maintenance (not really that big a deal).
