need a couple tips on tire size

Hey all, sure glad I found this forum after getting my 2013 Can Am XTp 1000. Lots of great info here.

Love the machine but I do a lot of trail riding and find I need a few more inches of clearance. I think I've decided on a set of ITP Blackwater Evos on 14 or 15 inch rims but just not sure what widths would work best? Going with 28's.

Going to install a 2 inch bracket lift as well.

Should I go with 9 or 10 inch wide in the front?
Should I go with 10 or 11 inch wide in the rear?

Or go with 10 inch wide on all four corners?

Thanks for any input

2016 450 Sportsman HO wont start!!

Hoping to get a little help, I have a 2016 450 HO and was trail riding and stopped to eat some lunch. When i got back on the bike it wouldn't start. Instrument panel lights up, lights work and winch works. Checked the battery shows good voltage even tried my battery from my other bike and same results. When i turn my key nothing happens not even a click. checked fuses all test good even changed my solenoid and still nothing, any help would be appreciated.

Exhuast and tuner talk!!

I just bought a 2019 570 renegade and I’m looking to put an exhuast on it but want to go the best possible route with out spending a ton of money also! My questions are can I buy a tuner and that will work with the lean conditions of putting on a exhuast? Because I don’t really care about all the extra things you get from a tuner, I just want the sound and for it to run the right air to fuel mixture, and obviously a little more power never hurt anyone!

Any tracks that last???

I've got a 2018 defender Max with full cab and all the bells and whistles. Love the machine. I did research and found that the Mattracks EZ tracks provided the best footprint. Purchased the set at nearly double the price of their competitors. They did provide a great footprint but after the first 40 to 60 mile trip I took it back in to retighten the tracks from break in. My dealer told me that the tension bolts were all but bottomed out to get the 20 pound/1 inch slack tension recommended. I ran them almost 250 miles to a property I have in the hills. Snow riding only. I am extremely upset that with dealer on the phone with Mattracks they never really gave a reason to why they couldn't stay tight at all. After dismounting them this spring we noticed that the tracks are split and torn both against the direction and with the direction of the tracks. The guy at Mattracks says it's because of the ruts in the snow. The majority of use is on a groomed trail!. Curious if anyone has used these tracks? Also, curious what is recommended track to use. I just took a $5000 bath in 250 miles. They offered to give me a discount on the purchase of new rubber on all four tracks. $3300 total for 250 miles!! I dont think so. Any info is very appreciated. Thank you

Identifiying machine

Hi Guys

I need to identify what year my machine is. Is there a serial number somewhere. It is a magnum 425 2x4 with high,low and reverse gears. I need a few parts I'm Western Australia, where would be a good place to get parts. Some of the part i need are brakes and starter motor.
I'm having problems starting it. It makes a clicking sound, sometimes starts sometimes doesn't. thinking it might be starter motor,starter solenoid or the push start button. Where would be a good place to start trouble shooting.
