Hi everyone. Hope I can get some help. I have a 2006 outlander 400. The stock rims are 6" wide in the front and 7.5" in the back. The stock tire size is 26x8x12 and 26x10x12.

I have 4 vampire 26x9.5x12 tires from another atv and want to put them on my outlander. Do you think these tires in all the same size but on different width (stock) wheels be OK? The rims they were on were all 7" wide (ITP steel wheels on a vinson).

as long as the rim height is the same they sould fit. of course putting a 9.5" wide tire on a 6" wide rim is not recomended. at all! it will work, but you have a higher chance of breaking or rolling a bead while riding. i would just look into new rims also while your at it. it will save alot of trail side frustration.
