Polaris Sportsman 850 Tire Upgrade! ~ CHEAP OEM TAKE OFFS ~ BIGHORN 2.0!

[@FordManiac76]

Ya I have a set of 27 bighorn 2.0 for my 850 but I also have a set of regular 29 bighorns which I prefer! I have a 2” lift and 1” wheel spacers on the front and 1.5” on the rear!

[@PeeterPuncher]

The 1000 has brake calipers at both wheels....also the same thing happened to me on the studs, 40 FT-lbs is plenty on those soft cheap studs.

[@RaztechPowersports]

How about that.. I was wondering! I’ve only had 550s and 850 with the single rear caliper. Yeah I snapped it with zero effort...

[@crazyflyboy30]

Man y'all are scaring me I've been doing 80 lb and haven't had one problem on my Sportsman XP 1000.

[@PeeterPuncher]

@@crazyflyboy30 you've been lucky.....80ft -lbs is way too tight for a M10X1.25 bolt, even a grade 12.9 M10X 1.25 torque is 64 ft-lbs per standardized torque values...and I doubt polaris uses 12.9 wheel studs.

[@crazyflyboy30]

@@PeeterPuncher my owner's manual said 75 ft-lbs so I over do everything so I been doing 80 ft-lbs with no problem and my wheels have been off and back on over 10 times has I worked on it alot. Just checking out everything, upgrades,greasing wheel bearings and new tires.

[@FordManiac76]

Ya I recently wrecked a stud using an impact gun!

[@crazyflyboy30]

My Sportsman XP 1000 has 4 disc brakes and you can add the other disc brake if you want to spin the money. And the tires I got was ITP XTR 27x11x14 on all 4 on 4 OEM 7.5x14 rear rim's .

[@RaztechPowersports]

Yeah if I ever feel like its needs more brakes, I’ll be doing that addition 🔧

[@markmark3122]

18 scrambler here 1000xp has 4 brakes. I put same tires on mine there a bit heavy but great on trails. You like them?

[@crazyflyboy30]

@@markmark3122 I love the Sportsman XP 1000 and love the XTR the traction is unreal I tested it on a dangerous steep rocky hill in 2 wheel drive and it made fine and I did it 2 times just made sure .Then I was taking to some guy with SXS at the top of the hill and when I told them I come up the steeper way in 2 wheel drive on a Sportsman don't know if they really believe me because they said that they don't even go that way because it's tough and late on I got another laugh has some other guys who was riding by in SXS then turning another tail we all hollered where you going he replied "don't go that way it's too rough "LOL

[@RaztechPowersports]

@@markmark3122 love them! Much more predictable and give the Atv much better cornering and overall traction

[@chipsterb4946]

If you don’t like the Bighorn 2.0 on a side-by-side, what do you prefer? Got a Can Am Defender that came stock with the Bighorns.

[@RaztechPowersports]

Yeah the 2.0s are to soft for a full size sxs. The maxxis rampage has been an excellent tire on my Rzr 1000

[@chipsterb4946]

@@RaztechPowersports thank you! I didn’t realize that the Bighorn 2.0 tires were lightweight versions and only 6 ply radials. I’m shopping for replacement tires now. I’m a tree farmer and drive over “slash” all of the time. A puncture waiting to happen as far as I can tell.

[@RaztechPowersports]

@@chipsterb4946 For your application you need to look at a heavier grade tire like a Roctane. But they will ride rough (you can practically run them with zero psi lol)

[@chipsterb4946]

@@RaztechPowersports if I can bug you a moment - how would you compare the Rocktanes S3 XTR370 tires in terms of toughness? Performance in mud? I would try to contact you via FaceBook but I deleted all social media accounts except KZbin a while ago.

[@middlehot]

You should install the 3rd brake light from the 1000 look awesome

[@RaztechPowersports]

It’s on my to do list 💡🏁

[@MindGoblinn]

Just came across this video. I have a 2022 850. Where did you get that receiver hitch from?

[@trevordodson4547]

I’m definitely going big horn 2.0

[@Knarf14]

Did you add clutch kit for bigger tires and have you had any problems clutch or belt ?

[@RaztechPowersports]

No need at all. Atv has so much power it’s kind of irrelevant to do a clutch kit. Unless your doing big mud tires and bogging it down in the mud

[@Knarf14]

@@RaztechPowersports ok thanks man

[@RaztechPowersports]

@@Knarf14 no problem. And it’ll still rip wheelies in high range btw. No belt slip

[@FordManiac76]

I have a set of the same 27 bighorn 2.0 on my 850 and no clutch kit is needed but I also have a set of regular 29 bighorns and a clutch kit is recommended!

[@4doorxj]

what setting are you running your shocks at? Looks great

[@RaztechPowersports]

Thanks and the shocks are at the softest factory setting.

[@ETXWheelsinMotion]

What’s the psi your supposed to run in these tires

[@RaztechPowersports]

Around 10 psi

[@ETXWheelsinMotion]

@@RaztechPowersports thank you for replying! I juts put these same tires on my Honda pionner 1000 I put 10 psi in them But on the road the tires where squealing like there wasn’t enough tire pressure so I put 13 psi in all 4 and it seems a lot better on the road. Is 10 psi on these usally for when your going of road or on trails and do you think it’s okay to do 13 when on the road and 10 psi when off road on trails / mud.

[@RaztechPowersports]

@@ETXWheelsinMotion oh yeah 12-15 psi for a sxs is normal. I thought you meant for an Atv.

[@markcollins5026]

Man, I run 5 psi, anything over that ride's like a tank !

[@lloydmarche7263]

Nice . I am installing a set of 28s . I think that’s the biggest I can go with a stick wheel set up.

[@RaztechPowersports]

Yes I believe 28” is the largest you can go on stock suspension. 29” will rub slightly

[@lloydmarche7263]

@@RaztechPowersports I hope so. Lol. I have a 2016 sportsman xp 1000. Really happy with the quad. Looking forward to trying out the new tires.

what psi are you running front and rear???

[@Tapphouse]

How wide are your rims? I found this exact set of tires for my 2015 scrambler 1000 but my rims are 14x5.5 and 14x7.5 , I’m thinking they will be too narrow. Any info would be great. Thank you.

[@RaztechPowersports]

Yes, I believe that is the OEM wheel size. They should fit great

[@Tapphouse]

@@RaztechPowersports REALLY?? 27x11r14 on a 14x7.5 rim fits with no issues? Ok! I for sure thot be too wide for that rim. appreciate it, thanks

[@RaztechPowersports]

@@Tapphouse Yeah I’m 99% positive that’s the OEM wheel size. Most aftermarket wheels are only 7 inches wide

@@crazyflyboy30 I think what happened is I cleaned the lugnuts and then sprayed with with a little wd40. They need to go on dry

[@crazyflyboy30]

@@RaztechPowersports Thanks for your Reply that makes sense that it would put more pull out on the studs with less torque and it could just been a bad stud. I know for sure that can am wheel studs are 100% crap I saw a lot of video of them braking them like crazy one guy said and another video he had a wheel fall off.

[@joekearney]

Those don’t look to bad , but the big horn knock offs on my 19 XP 1000 Premium have grown to be ugly to me . For my personal taste only I’ve always liked skinny’s alway around . I like smooth flush lines and angles . I actually liked the way that stock 850 looks far more than the bumpers and way to wide rear tires look on my 1000. Had a lot of atvs over the years , all major brands except Suzuki . My last Polaris was a 98 sportsman 500. It fell apart around the Fuji 500 engine . The fact it took until 2020 For Polaris to finally use sealed compressed bushings is beyond disturbing . If Kawasaki would have get off their butts and have made a 1000 Brute , this xp wouldn’t be here lol. I do love the ride and low end power but it tails off pretty quick , and I can’t stand the front end push and feels like it needs a pasture to turn around in. My three brutes were far more nimble , but obviously not as plush .

[@RaztechPowersports]

I had a 98 sportsman 500 too lol. U-Joint axles constantly wore out.. but such a advanced Atv for its time! I do like skinny’s for racing
