wheels and tires

[cwk]

Hey where's the best place to get wheels and tires? my 1984 max2 has the odd 12inch rims. I want to go with smaller rims what is the best size to go with? Thank's

Will the bolt pattern on 8 inch rims fit? That is the current size.recreatives Industries would have rims as does Richard Clark of Route 6x6.Around $40 I think.

Would you be interested in a trade?

Eldon they are the standard five lug.

Duckhunt81 thank's for the offer but I'm not shure might better hold on to them but what ya got anyway?

Your best bet would be to get 8" rims......they're the most common and very easy to find. The tires will ride a lot better too since they're not mounted on a 12" wheel. Also, the 5x4.5" bolt pattern is pretty much universal when it comes to 6 wheeler hubs so you will have no problems there. Good luck with it.

jpswift1 8" sounds good what is the common width to go with?

[jpswift1]

I believe 8" is the standard width too. If you plan on running very low tire pressure on the trails it would be a good idea to use K-lock beadlock type wheels that come standard on the newer Max 6 wheelers. But if not, any 8"x8" rim would work fine for you. I've even heard of people using 8"x7" rims from Tractor Supply.
