I picked up a 2012 Honda Foreman 500 with 29.5 Outlaws on appear to be offset rims. I don't really know the history on it.

This will be for hunting and hauling sacks of corn, fertilizer, pulling a small trailer around. I don't know squat about 4wheelers, but it looks like I want to go to stock rims and smaller tires to keep the mud off me and preserve the axles, etc. (I will add pics in next post.) Sound plan? Where around South side of Atl or Macon to buy?

The other thing is while I plan to haul it back and forth to hunting in the bed of my truck, I have noticed everyone eventually switches to hauling in a trailer. I assume I will as well. Also, I'll probably haul it to NM and CO in case I can use it. That means I need to better quality trailer. I kinda feel like this 4wheeler will be sold in a few years if Honda starts making Pioneer 520s again. So, I may as well get a trailer sufficent for that at highway speeds. Any words of wisdom on what to look for? I generally buy used.

Thanks if you read the whole book!

Try a set of carlisle 489 xl 26x12x12 rear and 26x9x12 front good all around tiers that ride nice. and just a little larger than the stock factory tires.
