I think I’ll get 32s when I wear out my factory ones a bit more . I road , Indian Ridge , Pinnacle creek , Pocahontas last year with My Talon R . No problem with my tires yet . I tried the Bob-t nap thing . My tablet wouldn’t overlay the maps . I recommend On X Off-road . I love it . The first few times I did Hatfield McCoy with the paper maps . The Tablet takes it to another level ! See you at the Outlaw bar and grill 😂👍
I know this a two year old video but I just thought I’d let you know- I ended up with 31 Carnivores directly because of this video. Thanks for your help!
Just so you know, 32's will not rub at all on your R model, they only rub on the X model. The R is not only wider, the front A-Arms are swept forward a couple inches giving you more wheel clearance.
Rock house is my favorite trail. I have driven the trail twice about 250 miles all together on stock tires Talon X 2 seater. They do very well on all the green and blue trails at high speeds. Not great at crawling though.
Nice set up. I'm getting 30x10-14 carnivores on my yxz with some light non beadlock moose rims with the 4/3 offset. I'm running 27 inch motohammers now and are great for my high speed fire roads but i'm in the mood now for some big soft pillows for the rough trails at camp.
I really love your video. I have a 2021 1000X-4, and really want to mount the 31's on the stock wheels, but heard it leaves the back wheel too exposed. What are your thoughts? Also, are the stock wheels the same size all around?
I actually have a 2021 x4 now myself “white and red”. I’m running 30” xtr 370’s on the stock wheels and it doe’s perfectly fine. The 30” xtr370’s are the same height as the 31” carnivores also
I run a 32” ITP Tenacity tire on my X4 stock wheels.Very little rub. I’ve heard 32” doesn’t rub at all on your R. Give me a yell sometime you’re in WV.
I read the rear axle is shorter and the wider tire in back makes up the difference. If you put all same size tires guys are putting 1 1/2 spacer on the rear
you mentioned the talon x and talon r are a little different what is the difference on them? which is better for bigger tires and more mud and hill situations?
Really digging your videos! New subscriber here. I want to know if you bought the exact same tire all around ? I’m confused as the front is a 28x9 and the back is a 28x 11. Was looking to put on 30x11s all the way around if that would work?
Hello, Good topic for discussion. Are you running the carnivores on the 2 separate sized (front/back) original wheels? If on the stock wheels does the wider rim on the rear make the rear tires shorter and does that affect the 4 wheel drive adversely? Thanks and looking forward to an answer.
Nope, the tire size is the same on all for as far as height. And yes I’m running them on the stock wheels. That machine has almost 2000 miles now same tires and absolutely no issue at all. I have a talon x4 now and I’m running 30x10x15 xtr 370’s on the stock wheels on that one. No issues
do they soften the ride? i have a lot of washboard near me up in Wisconsin and I know my honda rancher has extreamply soft and low psi it makes such a smooth ride. but on my talon the tires are so high pressured and I would really like to get a softer 30in maybe tire and I want to know if these do the trick
It softens it a little bit. I love The talons but they ride pretty rigid no matter what. These tires run at Max 18psi and I usually run 10-12psi on Rocky terrain.
Yes, the front rims are narrower than the rear but all 4 tires are the same size. I had the Honda dealer mount them and they had no issues at all. I’ve put over 300 miles on them so far and they are still going strong.
Funny you ask, I have been kicking around the idea of selling mine and buying the 4 seater for the family. I ride with a few talon 4 seaters and they go just as easy as my 1000R. Only drawback they say is, due to extra length, it makes the turning radius a little larger. Plus the only other differences in the X & R is the R is a little wider/ longer and the suspension has more travel.
@@PoposWoodworks Popo's that is great as I just went riding in my new 2021 Honda Talon 1000X-4 Fox Live in the Ozarks (1,000,000 Acre State Park) and got so lost it took me 10 hours to get to my start point. Looking forward to seeing how we build a great GPS system. Thanks
Knock on wood, so far so good! I have almost 500 miles on it now and haven’t had one single issue. We rode right at 200 miles in West Virginia in 3 days and it performed great. I absolutely love this machine, a lot better than my RZR I had.

Awesome video. I picked up a Talon last week, hoping to find some Carnivores next week!
Looks good man. I’m with ya on the ride quality. My krx has them & it goes wherever I point her! 👍

I'm planning on getting 31" tires on my Talon X as well. Good to know

When I had the 35” tires on it, the wheels were 5+2 offset and required 1 1/2” spacer on each rear wheel to make it even with the front.
you mentioned the talon x and talon r are a little different what is the difference on them? which is better for bigger tires and more mud and hill situations?

Yea they were 31x10 all the way around on the stock wheels
Hi... do you need spacers on the back tires?
Stock wheels 31x10x15 carnivores
@popo's woodworks
do you need spacers on the back wheels?
I just bought the 31x10x15 carnivores... I'm planning to keep the stock wheels...

Did you keep your stock 9” wide wheels in rear or did you put front wheels in rear as well?
I kept it the same. The stock wheels that came on the front are still on the front. The rear stocks are still on the rear.
I've read that a 32" carnivore doesn't measure 32"... so maybe not all 32s will fit without rubbing??
do they soften the ride? i have a lot of washboard near me up in Wisconsin and I know my honda rancher has extreamply soft and low psi it makes such a smooth ride. but on my talon the tires are so high pressured and I would really like to get a softer 30in maybe tire and I want to know if these do the trick
It softens it a little bit. I love The talons but they ride pretty rigid no matter what. These tires run at Max 18psi and I usually run 10-12psi on Rocky terrain.
So a 10 wide will fit the front factory wheels and no spacers to get them to match the rear?
Yep that’s right, I’ve put over 300 miles in west va on this setup and no issues at all.
Did you mount these tires front and back rims since they're different widths?
Yes, the front rims are narrower than the rear but all 4 tires are the same size. I had the Honda dealer mount them and they had no issues at all. I’ve put over 300 miles on them so far and they are still going strong.
How much ground clearance did you get with these tires over stock.
How much height did the 31" Carnivores add?
Are the front and back wheels the same width?
What’s your opinion about a 2021 talon 4 base model.I’m afraid it’s to low since a 4 seater

I use an apple iPad with a gear 4 case. Drilled 4 holes and mounted a ram ball in the part used to prop it up works great
Do the bigger tires affect the i4x4?
Need a handbrake for those hairpin turns lol
I have the same tires on my 1000R. Have you played with pressures and found something ideal?
I have but haven’t really found that sweet spot yet. I currently run 16psi in all four as of not.
Do they measure a true 31"???
Yes they do if the pressure is right
Did you paint your wheels?
Naw they are the factory wheels that came with the machine
Ok 👍
so you are running stock talon r rear tires on the front? no spacers?
Actually no, the front are the factory front wheels. A 10” wide tire will fit the factory front wheels also.
Any problems with your talon

Anyone think that 10.5 wide would fit on stock rims front and back?
