I am trying to compile some data and am looking for an idea of what size, type, and brand wheels you all run on your UTVs. Please tell me:

What UTV you drive?

What Brand Wheel?

What Size Wheel - height & width?

Bead lock?

Finish?

Material?

Cost?

Additional info or insight.....?

I plan to use this info to help wheel
companies in building new, and better wheels that we all would like to see. It would also probably help new members in deciding what to run.

Thanks Underground!!!

2008 teryx

hiper carbon bead locks billet center. 12" black carbon
stock offsets
lightest bead lock for the sand and completly rebuildable. and good for racing.
$really expensive
only good for sand and non rocky riding/racing the carbon gets chewed up by the rocks and flexs to much on hard landings

dwt diablo 14" aluminum
stock offset
went with the larger wheel for extra clearance around the A arm ball joints in the desert so not to catch rocks.
$150each
nice wheels just really heavy but very durable.

2008 Polaris RZR
12x8 OMF beadlocks with stiffening ring on the back
I've had black and polished they take the harsh desert racing very well.
About $400 each. Not cheap but worth it. I would like to go to a 14 and run a taller tire, but can't afford it.
 
I have the 900 xp
I went with the 14" (14x6)Dwt Diablos in BLACK CHROME strictly for a classy look
30" MSA MOTOMONSTERS for the aggressive tread
My reasons.. over the years I have ran many tires.. well pretty much all of them... for what I do I choose the motomonsters to pull my way through the thickest mud situations! They dig down, but once they hook watch out.. a little rough at 5-10 mph but after that not so bad. I believe its a winning combination with the two, first class look and an agressive tread.. Watch out this rzr coming through.
:cool:

I have HiPer 12" wheels with ITP BajaCross 25x10x12 on back and a 25x8x12 on the front. Love them but would like to get into short course and am looking to run a 23" tire on 12" rims. Super light and less rotating mass.
