The 700XX runs an 11" rear rim in order to clear the calipers and stuff. Read this, ITP came out with a set for the XX.

thanks! do you like the itp sand stars? i was looking at those, i dont plan on draggin the bike so i want something i can turn with still.

That is exactly what you want. The straight paddles are more for off the line acceleration and the angled ones, like the sand star is more for carving bowls and such.

They are one of the best sand tires available. Skat trak makes some great one too.

the only problem i'm having is finding a rear rim for the quad. like you posted about the 11 inch rear stock so i'm looking for a 12x8 rear or something because itp has 22x11-12 rear sand stars but even the itp website only has 10s. i have no idea where to buy parts online.

You also want to make sure you get a wheel with the correct offset. The IRS quads use a rear wheel with alot of back spacing, so it has a drastic positive offset. If you buy normal rims, your machine may be close to a foot wider. Not only would that be a nuisance in tight spaces, the suspension will turn mushy and the handling may get wierd.

Itp made rims specificly for the 700xx!!!!!!!!!!!
