Pitbull Growlers on XTP Beadlocks

I am looking to upgrade my stock tires to some Pitbull growlers on my 800 XTP max. I want to keep the stock bead lock wheels. Anyone have any issues with getting the bead lock on properly? I know the bead on the growlers is fairly deep but I have done it on lots of Jeep and other off road tires that have a deep bead without issue. Just need to tighten the bead lock down sequentially in a star pattern I believe. I’m planning on going with the 25.5 x 8x 12 and 25.5 x 10 x 12 6 ply as I don’t want to jeopardize my ride quality or add any interference or excessive extra weight. Any info appreciated. Thanks.

Sxma gas container

Looking at ordering the sxma 5 gallon gas container. Can't find a lot of reviews on it. It is similar to a koplin container but less expensive. I have read that koplin containers leak. Koplin is also only a four gallon. Anyone have a sxma or any information on them?

what’s different about the 2018 axles?

So i have a 2018 with a broke axle. its under warranty and I will get it fixed using the warranty. but what i was wanting to know is for future reference will 2017 axles work in the 2018. I wanted to upgrade to rhino axles but after talking to them they can not confirm fitment at this time. Even the local Polaris dealer has no idea if they will work. All anyone can tell me so far is they are the same length...... in case it helps its a base 570 non eps. and the axle i broke is the front right. thanks for any help.

2018 850 XMR Springs

I'm weigh 275lbs and wondering what to do with my springs on my 850 XMR. I watched the video of putting 650 XMR springs on the back, should i do this or go with HD springs? Also should I order HD springs for the front as well? Nothing i hate more then bottoming out, i did it once in a ditch already and it was the front that bottomed out.

2015 xxc 1000 backfiring then looses power

Bike has ~200 miles- no underwater riding - with Power commander.
One day I start the quad up and I can tell it is mis-firing. I can hit the throttle and it feels like full power-accelerates well then starts to break down near redline then it has very reduced power and backfires badly - there are no codes or errors on the dash.
Removed Power commander to see if that was causing a problem- Checked the valve clearances and checked compression (all good) and replaced the fuel pump and checked the pressure (again perfect) new spark plugs ... injectors firing correctly so i cleaned them (fill fuel lines with injector cleaner) - no change so this time I hooked up an inductive timing light and I can see on the forward cylinder the spark plug wire miss firing badly just by holding the revs up a little ( you can hear the backfiring and see the timing light misfiring at the same time- basically I know it is electrical/spark issue)

So this time I bought a new pickup (crank) sensor. Still no change.

What do you think my next thing to replace would be? I am thinking all new coil pack. I did not see anything wrong with the coil wires (no arcing marks- nothing worn or cracked or shorting to ground)

Sure is a PITA. All plugs and connections I check (Example: the ECU) are pristine and clean and dry. I also dumped all the fuel and put new fresh (regular) fuel.
