I went through this same dilemma talked to a buddy of mine that has tons of experience on side by side builds. His feedback was that it is very possible to seat the bead on different width wheels, but once seated the overall diameter of the tire would be slightly different from front to back. He explained the farther out the bead needs to travel to seat the tire (on the wider rear wheel) the smaller the diameter becomes. Also, the look front to rear will be slightly different. Seems to make sense to me!

on a side note, I have an extra set of (2) brand new super atv 1.5” spacers if you decide to go that direction.  I mounted them to my new wheel and tire setup and realized they pushed my aftermarket wheels out just slightly too far. I run 1” spacers now. Good luck with your build!

Price lowered to $600!

Hope everyone had a good Christmas! Here is where my machine currently sits with a list of mods as well as some mods to come in the future. If anyone has any questions, I’m happy to answer.

Volt meter installed in dash (realized later that this info is an option on the factory dash display. Oh well.

Replaced all factory fluids with Royal Purple. (I’m a little OCD with this stuff)

”Custom” car seat in the rear for the little guy. Just kidding on the custom part. 😂

List of future mods: 

RotopaX 4 gallon gas can custom mounted in bed

Can-am factory door kit

Checked under there, no such luck. At least that I can see? Maybe I’m missing something that’s right in front of me.

Oh the owners manual. When I bough this machine they told me they had to order a new manual for me because the original “must have walked off”. Still waiting for that to show up. I’m not holding my breath on that one. Does this picture look like yours on your 19 under the dash?

thanks for your help!

I was thinking about ordering a wired remote switch for the front winch so I can retract it without someone running the rocker switch. I have a 2020 defender lone star with the can am 4500 hd winch. I have heard guys say there is a 3 prong hookup for these under the front hood. Can anyone direct me to where this is? Maybe I don’t have one and it’s only run off the rocker switch in the cab.

Wanted to put out a little feeler on this sale of my wheels and tires... is this a fair asking price for these? Tried to price it based on other sets I have seen on this forum. Let me know your thoughts!

On a side note, I want to thank everyone on this forum for all their help as I was researching new machines. I lurked around for a month or so reading up on everything you guys have done to your machines, issues, upgrades, etc. Ended up with a 2020 Lonestar. A huge thanks to everyone and all their insight. I’ll start contributing some stuff here soon as we get our build underway. Thanks again!

Removed from my new 2020 can am defender lone star. 14” wheels, 28” maxxis bighorn 2.0 tires. 9 inch fronts, 11 inch rears. Selling the complete set of 4, not willing to split them up. Sorry!
