Hey my buddy just dropped me off some 25x12x9 mud tires are they to big to put on the warrior? They are tall but they don't look to tall guess I just wanna see what yall say
 
give'm a shot I think they may be to tall though and they might rub and u will probaly have to mess with gearing too
 
the bigest i would go is 22 but 25's work but look different

I don't really care how it looks I just like functionality.... I figured the added height will give me some more ground clearance and they have some pretty good tread on them and we have some thick mud down here in Mississippi so I figured if they fit they would be worth at least trying out.
 
Do it make it a mud warrior. Get a snorkle, exhaust snorkle,12 tooth front sprocket and make sure everything is sealed up good. Take it through water up to the bars.

Haha ya I thought about it..... But I don't know I might as well sell it and buy a wolverine! NOT! I'll see where it goes I guess they might not even fit but I heard that you can use a banshee dog bone? To get a little lift in the rear end is this true? And thats what the rear shock bolts to at the bottom correct.
 
If you were to use a 660 shock, and the Banshee dogbone it would give you a 3" lift. Not to mention the taller tires would lift the ass up in the air to.. It would look raked out, a hotrod Warrior! lol

The 25's will give you more ground clearence for the axle and carrier. The banshee dog bone or the 660 shock is not. You will have to regear to get it to perform well. It is going to be super slow with those 25's. Deffinetly go 12 tooth up front, you may have to go up a tooth or 2 in the rear. Try and see what happens.
 
Ya if I do do it I will regear for sure! As far as being slow it dosent really matter to me and I wanna just open the gap between the swing arm and fenders to make room for the tires if it dosent work owe well I nothing in to it. I will get it all done and ride it before I buy new front skins. And I think oldwarriorrider is going to be sending me a 12 tooth front with the nerfs. I just like a bottom end bike that works good around hear
 
The one my brother just picked up had 25s in the rear also. To my surprise it actually could wheelie with them.
