Since I'm going to 26x10-12 all around (executioner) what offset should I get? I dont really wanna buy the wrong wheels. The original size was 24x8-11 24x10-11. Thanks

I have a foreman 400 also. I did the shock swap, put the rear shocks on the front and put 450 rear shocks on the rear. And i run 27" Outlaws, with no rubbing at all, even at full turn.

i just went with 26'' executioners to be safe. anyone think I'll need spacers or lift for no rub?

10 would be the widest you would want to go on the front man..... i run 9's on my fronts and love it, i have no problem turning and feel in more control.... just my opinion

Good thing man. I bought 10's all around. Probably should have gone 12 on the back but then again I should have gone 27 instead of 26. I think they'll work. Can't decide if I wanna do a lift or not... The 400 is a little stubby.

Did it give you much lift? And the 450 fit right in? No adjustments?

I also did the shock swap all I did was grind a little off the bottom eye of the 450 shocks and they fit right in very ez install and gave me about 2 1/2 to 3 inches of lift. I Put 26 inch mudbosses on it and it looks like a monster lol. there should be some good threads on how to do it on here but it was very simple.

For those of you that did the shock swap, any issues with CV joints, or is it still a safe enough height that you won't wear them out every year?

I have been riding mine for 2 years with the swap and no problems at all.
