the only problem will be the hideous look it will have.

If it's 4x4 you will....tires have to be the same diameter....(height), or you will be tearing up your 4x4 in no time....

Hey I saw in a Dirtwheels or Quad mag they make a aftermarket CVT belt and Gear to handle tires like these. My buddy Doogie has a 700 Grizzly he did the belt and gear on and it made a huge difference for the bottom end and low end torque. He can actually get his up on the back wheels now that he has the belt and gear.

I cannot remember where he got it from but I will ask, if you are interested.

i know nothing about these utility quads, but i do know about cvts and those tires will be slipping that belt. you may want a higher quality belt and you can tune the clutches with springs and such, i even tune the cvt on my golf cart as far as different pucks.

dayco makes some nice belts, and have a good warrenty.
