| Well , i did decide on what wheel and tire combo i wanted , but wouldn't you know it thay were discontinued. i wanted the ITP seris 7 polished wheels and thay stop makeing them. but after calling around about a 100 places , i did find one set. 5-2 2-5 offset. and i desided to go with 27 mudlite XTR's and a 2 inch lift. I hope it works and looks like i think it will. :D now my next problem if my numbers and mesureing is correct. i put a yamaha top on it yesterday , and i am afrade after the tires and lift , its not going to clear my basement door.... if this is the case i will put a black soft top on , I saw one and it looks good... :) the yami top sits pretty high. i will know next week , when thay get here. I also ordered the CDI from hunter works. I guess i will get it when thay get more in stock. :D as a foot note , I called ITP yesterday , and all seris 7 wheels the black , machined and all will be discontinued by the end of the year. so if you want any, you need to get them soon. that is 12 inch or 14 inch. Chris.... | |

| Thats good , you had me a little scared..... I thought i had waisted alot of money. Now i feel better , thay will be here in a couple of days.... I remember you said you had a farm with some property , though i am only 43 , i sold my bissiness . i owned a auto service center and a metal fab shop. so i am simi retired. and since i am only about 45 min away, maybe after i get the rhino set up . i can come up and ride around the farm a bit. I would love to ride though your town. i did not know you had family in such high places.... Chris.... :D | |

| Glad you got what you wanted. I have the same tires and they are great in the mud and on hard trails. I was a bit afraid of going too big but the Rhino pulls them just fine. | |

| You have to be carefull in the yard, Don't cut too tight and stay off the throttle. I drive mine down to the boat house and around the yard doing some work with it but it will tear up the grass if you don't watch out. I kept the original tires and wheels to put on it in the winter if I plan on riding it in the yard. I don't think that they are as aggressive and will not tear it up as much. I have tore up the edge of my driveway in a few places with them. | |
