On my Polaris the stock tires are 25x8-12 in the front, and 25x11-10 in the back. Can i fit 26x10-12 on the front without getting new rims since it is a wider tire?
Also, I want to get 26x12-12 on the back and i have to get new rims. Can i leave the stock rims on the front and just use ITP c-series on the back? Thanks...hope my question makes sense!

ya the wider tire in front would only be an inch wider on each side giving you the 10 wide so you wouldn't have a problem. The rear you would have to buy a 12 inch tall rim to fit the 26x12x12 tire. Your right on everything it will all work. I went from 8 wide in front to 10 wide and 10 wide in back to 12 wide. Been like that for 2yrs and no problems with the tires or rims. What kinda tires you looking at getting.

So the aftermarkt rims in the back and keeping the stock ones up front wont be a problem. The only reason i ask is because there will be a big difference in weight in the front and back. I am looking into getting ITP Mudlites with the Deep Lugs. It sucks that I have to buy new rims for the rear...that will set me back a little.
