Default 35's on stock 17's

Hello,

I am trying to figure out what tires I want. Is it possible to fit a 35" tire on the stock 17 alloy wheel that comes on the TRX4? If so what size would be the best. I really don't want them sticking too far out.. Thanks

They won't stick out too far due to the offset of the wheel. One guy said he'd do 12.5's on his but I'm thinking that's a bit much on a 7" wide wheel.

Oops yeah I'm a dummy...they're 35 x 12.5s ....Red I would double check the sticker. My dealer sticker for my TRX4 says 17x7 wheels.

325mm = 13.25"...9"+ rim with correct offset/backspace or spacer required.
275 max on stock 17x7".

well if you go to Tirerack and look at some 35 x 12.5 tires it will tell you what rims will fit.

Look Here Look at the rim size part
