RZR Wheels on Sportsman?!?!

Hi, I recently got a set of 2016 RZR wheels and tires and I'm going to put them on my 2002 Sportsman 500 HO. I got a set of 1.5' wheel spacers and everything fits nicely. My questions is, it seems like the RZR rims take a bigger wheel stud then the 3/8 wheel stud on that are on the wheel spacers. I got 3/8 lug nuts that seem to sit nicely on the rims once you center the holes on the spacer stud. Is it safe to run the 3/8 wheel stud, or should I replace them with 12mm wheel stud if thats the correct size for 2016 rzr. Thank you!!

New XMR owner!

Hello Can Am forums! I'm Mark, and I just bought a 2017 570 xmr a couple weeks ago and so far I'm loving it! I'm no stranger to quads, I bought the can am to replace my Polaris Ace, but I like to buy and tinker with old machines so I have a couple other projects going on too.

Outlander stalls after a few mins.

I have a 2012 outlander 500xt. It's takes a few minutes to start up. While it's running the rpm goes up/down and than quad stalls. Once I get on and ride it's fine but sometimes I feel like it's loses power. I can't figure out what's wrong. Any ideas on where to start??

2016 Scrambler 1K

My buddy is putting his scrammy up for sale. Only reason for sale is not getting out enough to use it. The times we have ridden it has been every bit of what it should be without any hiccups. Washed and detailed after every ride before it was stored in his garage. I ride hard but not abusively, and compared to me this thing was honestly babied. If you want a new scrammy without the sticker shock, take a look at it.

Used Purchase Dilemma – 2015 or 2016 570 Touring

Hey guys,

I've been smitten by the 570. If I could find and used X2, I'd be all over it. Those are somewhat like finding a unicorn on the used market. So the 570 touring it is.
I have two young children that will ride time to time with me and I like the safety of the longer chassis and true seat for them.

Needless to say, I'm debating between two models. One thing I've noticed, is that the 570's don't have the best resale value...good for the buyer, not the best for someone who bought new. Ideally my budget is $5500. I'd be willing to go as high as $6500. Things I do want...or will add winch and plow. I can get the 60" pro plow setup with winch for around $950.

I went to look at a 2016 Touring 570 with EPS. Just serviced at the local dealer. 240 miles. Very good condition. Zero accessories. Asking $6000. He agreed to $5500. He's close by too so this would be a convenient transaction. I'd have to add winch and plow.


Next...is a 2015 Touring 570SP. Maroon in color. Come with winch and 60' Polaris pro plow. 410 miles. Asking $7500. Seller would take $6800. They are about 2 hours away and I'd be good to go. I wouldn't have to add a thing. Seems people love or hate the SP models. Resale is not that greatly affected.

In the end...do I buy the cheaper newer one for around $6450

or go with the 2015 SP for $6800. Both have stretched my budget but not breaking the bank.

What say you?

Somewhat new to Polaris…

Hey guys,

Getting back into the ATV market. Somewhat...I sold a Polaris Rzr 900 trail this spring due to lack of use and too big for my local trails. I'm now looking at a couple of 570 Touring models. Been riding atvs/dirtbikes forever. Unfortunately children and work don't allow to ride much at all. Hence, I don't want to spend a lot on a bike, especially if it's going to sit.

Either way, I'll be making another post about my used 570 dilemma/debate.

ITP Mud lite XL 27″ or 28″ on Sportsman SP 570 -17?

Hi, I'm new to the board.
Hoping to get some good answers here :)
So, this summer I bought a Sportsman 570 SP -17.
It has the McPerson struts in the front (European model, US might have dual a-arms)?

I'm now looking to upgrade my tires. Machine comes stock with 26" tires on 14" rims.
A friend of mine recommended the ITP Mud lite XL, and now I'm wondering if I should go with the 27" or the 28"?
When I read online, people are saying ITP-tires seems to be a size smaller than other tires.
Will 28x10-14 and 28x12-14 fit on my stock 570 Except for spacers in the front.
I'm worrying about rubbing in the back against the footwell/fender.
Or should I go with the 27x10-14 and 27x12-14 instead?

Best regards!
