Foreman tire question


BoxMN

Recommended Posts

Are the Yamaha Grizzly rims and these tires able to fit a stock 03 Honda Foreman 450es?

AT 27x12-12 6 ply and AT 27x9-12 6 ply

Reason I ask is I saw a decent deal, but not sure is 27's would fit. I would likely use these for winter, and switch back to my 25's in summer, if these would even fit. Thanks!

Physically fit. I think the bolt pattern is the same (110) for both.

I would also add that I am a heavy guy and have a rear drop rack, so my rear end sags, which might make rubbing more an issue than skinny guy.

Ideally I would like a bit more clearance for snow, and I know 26's would work, but the 27's I saw were decent price. But not if it won't fit, ha! Thanks!

The lug bolt pattern is the same (4/110) and the 27's will fit without rubbing depending on the tire lug pattern. If the tires have a large lugs sticking out on the edges of the tires they may rub slightly on the front shocks when you turn sharp. I had them on my 450 for 10,000 miles with no problem. The main thing you need to look at is the offset of the rim to be sure it's the same as your stock ones. The fronts should be 5+2 and the rear should be 2+5. Those numbers denote how much distance there is from the mounting surface to the outside of the rim and from the mounting surface to the inside of the rim.
