  1. 700-4
New to the SXS world and having a blast. Heres my new to me 2016 700-4 and I just put some new shoes on her, 27x9x12 all the way around. I gained about 1.5 inches as that said right at 10" before the swap.

They ride nice, I'm mostly hardpack, rock, and asphalt so I'm thinking of bumping psi up from 17 to a bit higher, what do you think?

She went to work for me putting the Seadoo in yesterday.

I did notice I only got to 42 mph instead of 45 with the swap but no biggie, I didn't buy her to set speed records.

You can see the stock front and rear for comparisons. 265a14cd8145faf946d5558b28cf39415097cbaec7bf6d68e2405e6c6770b103D476476be8b4efc4f2b0e777ebfa80a1B39c24cbcbe2073290ba042faa2d6edfAc877adcb13ccd36be843382bf55cb62

Looks great, did you have to switch the stock wheels out?

I bought the tire/wheel package from RockyMountainAtv so they came already mounted on new steel wheels.

if 42 is what the speedometer says you are probably going faster. My reads 45 with 29's and gps says 48-49

I ordered 27x9x12 for all 4. Can I run my same stock wheels for front and back or am I going to have to change it up?

Will have to change the rear wheels to make up for the smaller tire. Or at least I guess you would have too ????

That’s where I am a little unknowing. I read somewhere that rims are both 12X7 with a 5+2 offset. Can anyone confirm this!?
