- i upgraded my Can Am Defender XMR tires to 32" Evil M1 tires from the ITP Mud tires. I review tires sizes and how they are not marked accurately on the tire. If you're upgrading your tires you should watch, I hope you learn something new. I wanted a tire which wouldn't damage my lawn, and would be great on the trail. Please have video setting at 1080P
Warren Tavernia i haven’t been able to respond directly to your comment so I hope this reply finds you. I was extremely concerned that the larger tires would stress the suspension and drivetrain that is why I weighed the tires in the video. The total tired weight add is only 4lbs which I and engineer dave believe to be negligible. Although engineer Dave believes the 10% increase in diameter will not stress the drivetrain I’m still somewhat concerned. I don’t stab the throttle, I roll in and out of the throttle and rarely use full throttle. So hopefully smart driving will help. The xmr A arms are big think and appear to be steel. This machine is impressive overbuilt for mud...so much beyond a standard Defender as why I purchased it. So hopefully this over engineered machine and smart driving will lower the chances of a breakage. Thank you
Good thing you got an MXR to do “yard work” !
That's what my wife said...this was a great machine. Loved it my weight loss started with it. Stay healthy
I have a older friend of mine that’s been a Polaris guy for 25 years, and the dealers in my area are he worst to deal with to the point he’s looking at the defender xmr.
This machine continues to impressive, it not a sport machine, but it is an awesome hill climber and touring machine…and good in mud!
He has a highlifter ranger at the moment he likes to crawl everywhere he goes
Nice looking ride you should check out super atv flip up windshield I can see it’s super cold there! Nice video
Thank you for commenting, i will checkout the windshield.
Lol! Throw them cryptids on the jeep and you'll have a new ride partner hahaha! I see a lot of guys around here getting an XMR and putting better trail tires on.. It's a good idea!!!
Dirt ObseXXion thank you. This was going to be a quick edit that turned into 8 hours with the need for additional video today. This hobby consumes time. Riding tomorrow, starts in the 30s finish in the 50s
@@maraudermitchelli Awesome! We rode today, beautiful day in the 60s... Nice change of pace..
Due to the difference in to diameter your new tires affect your acceleration but your top speed has now increased. A fair trade off for your increased ground clearance. New clutching will get your acceleration back but is it really worth the added cost?
Grant Harmsworth no I don’t think it is. Today I climbed out toughest hills in high gear no diff lock and the clutch, transmission and engine had no issues with the 32” tires. I agree with you comment thank you for commenting!
Mitchell, why did you get the xmr versus almost any of the other models? The xmr is really made for the mud and water? That’s why it comes with the snorkel and mud tires. Just curious?
TripleThreat33T for the love of God for the looks, it’s a monster. This machine turned me from Polaris to Can Am. Love it, a cab unit may be in my future. Btw they’re all good units to each his own. Thank you for commenting 🙂
@@maraudermitchelli same here, don't worry about haters say
Thanks, great video.
I loved this machine...just a great ride and good looking. thank you be safe
Are both the front and the rear tires the 10" wide tires.? I looked at AMS's web site and they only list 32 x 10 x 14s and they list them as fronts. 165 miles on ours and we love it, but the tires aren't great for our location.
Chad Pollock yes I thought I stated in the video all 4 corners 10” wide. The 32” tires made my machine. I didn’t want the attention it gets at the trail head, people what to come over and ask. The fronts to scuff the inner fender well, nothing serious and only in extreme bumps. I love hope you do also. Thank for commenting don’t hesitate to ask. 😊
Now with the new wheels. Are the rims the same size all way around or is it like the stock where the rear rims are wider then the front?
Kyle I purchased rims that were the same at all four corners...I don't remember the stock setup having different sized rims...I just don't. My 32" tires and rims were all the same size. This was a great setup and fun on the trail and yard...great machine. I still have the rims tires and may be selling them.
What size wheels on front / back and where did you purchase. Thanks
32" x 10" from my dealer
Wow! Those shoes are big. They aren't near as heavy as I expected. What ply rating? After you trail ride I'm curious how the clutching works. Looks nice.
Jerry they are 8 ply radials, I should’ve mentioned that. This machine has a ton of low end torque I think it should be fine on most hills. They still have a deep lug but there are many should be a great trail tire...awesome on turf! Thank you for watching we’re riding Sunday...taking atv.
Jerry they are 8 ply and awesome on the trail...love it! Thank you.
What is the overall height of the machine now with the new tires? The stock spec from BRP says the machine sits at 80" tall without a roof. With the roof and new tires, how tall is it?
hmm, i've never measured the machine...i'm guessing 82", but i will try to measure tonight. Great questions!
Do you think adding some 1" spacers on front would prevent any rubbing? The adding 2" in back to try to even out the stance better? Thanks
Patrick Doyle only lifting the front would help with the rubbing, I think preloading the front may eliminate it. Not enough for me to worry about it. Thank you commenting stay healthy 🙂
Hi, what lug nut size are these? Do you need a deep socket to remove the lugs?
I think they are 15 or 17 mm. You need an extension no deep socket though. Stay healthy
I just picked up a new defender xmr and I liked the s3 rear bumper you have on yours. Are you still able to fully tilt the bed back to gain access to the engine or does the bumper hit the back tires?
No Steve, i have many minutes of video of me modifying and painting the bumper to open fully missing my larger tires.
I believe the bumper actual hit the stock tire, i have to look at the video. Maybe i'll post that video this week. The EMR dump does not open as far as the standard defender dump...it is limited at the hinge i believe. I'm not sure.
I love the bumper, it was the only one that matched the front bumper. As usual we have to finish the job for the manufacturers.
Did you add a lift of any sort to fit the 32's?
I’m sorry this response is late, sometimes TH-cam won’t let me respond directly to a comment. The xmr came with a lift kit, I only changed the tires. Thank you for watching!😊
Looks Great, I still have the Cryptid tires but I want to change them , are the Devil M1 tires 32x10x14 ? Thanks
JC V yes I thought I explained that in the video. They are very nice.
@@maraudermitchelli Thank you so much Marauder, lost in translation maybe, I have one of the fewest Defender XMR in Mexico and i Love it, I maybe lost myself in the translation when you said the size of the wheels. Honestly I need to change the tires, there is to much vibration.
JC V yes I had too much vibration also. They are evil m1 tires 32x10 for a 14” rim. We love Mexico 🇲🇽 God Bless amigo
What size was the cryptids? They look wider then the ones on my 850 xmr
They’re marked 30”, but the measure 28.5”. I believe I mentioned this in the video. Thank you for watching. 😊
Sorry I met width wise
The rear tires are 1” wider, fronts 2” wider than stock. I used the same rims as i didn’t want the machine wider as it wouldn’t fit on my trailer.
I know this is off topic but how do you get the mud stains out of those seats?
scott syples I just remembered I never answered sorry. I haven’t had it long enough to struggle cleaning the seats but I’ve heard that’s difficult. I use simple green on every and it seams to work. I’ll keep you posted. Thank you
I have this machine and I use tuff stuff auto interior cleaner on my seats it an aerosol can
trckdrvrbird thank you I’ll try it, happy Easter 🐣
Love your video what is rim size and offset
Please tell me rim size and offset
Fastboy I don’t have this machine any more…but I’ll just remembered I have the rims and maybe selling them. They are the factor xmr rims no special offset. They did rub every once in awhile against the firewall.
Did these rub at full lock
No but the fronts did hit the front firewall on bumps, and on the limited i had to get front A arms which were offset 2" forward. Thank you for supporting my channel.
This is the first video of yours that I've seen/watched. interesting. Do any of your riding buddies run a ranger xp 1000? If so how do the machines compare tires aside? At one point I thought I heard you say "now on my ranger.... " Or when I had my ranger...." ???? I know these xmrs are new but in general I'm going back and forth on what to get a ranger or can am. HD 10. Regardless they're a lot of $ for my side of the street.
Hi Tom, I've had two Rangers, and this is my second Can am after a lapse of 6 years, The Ranger is a fine product, and the only SXS available with air conditioning. Many prefer the Ranger over the Defender. The Defender, especially the XMR are well engineered machines. The Defender Cab for me is roomier, easier to get in and out of, the suspension components are massive, seats more comfortable, the engine is quieter and torque power plant. The Defender made Polaris improve their Ranger. I don't think you would be disappointed with either brand...frankly SXS's started with Polaris. After owner 6 SXS in 13 years...i have a video on my sxs history, i'm happy i purchased a defender...the XMR is a beast! Please don't hesitate to ask more questions, I'll try to respond sooner. Thank you for commenting.
Did these rub?
I'm sorry you had to ask twice, I've been away and not feel well. No but the fronts did hit the front firewall on bumps, and on the limited i had to get front A arms which were offset 2" forward. Thank you for supporting my channel
Hey i just ordered these tires because of your great vid ! I have a 2020 defender xmr did u do anything so they dont rub? And are you reslly happy with them?
They are an excellent lawn and trail tire! Front scuffs inside fender liner on abrupt bumps. Suspension set on softest setting, I have no concern. I put the Cryptics on my Mac atv. I purchased another set of xmr rims to have the same with on my trailer. We will now have the coolest xmr at the trail... thank you for commenting! 😊
Wow thanks for replying so fast and ok so when it rubs it dosent damage anything? And i am planning on keeping everything stock anything else i should know 😃
Vince Vautour I’m not concerned about the scuffs, no damage. Sorry for the misspelling...width not with...max not mac.
Lol we will have awsome xmr but im in canada so wont be riding the same trails that your on lol did u balance the tires after u put them on the new rims?
Ohh one last question lol what psi are u running in your tires?
appreciate you sharing your thoughts. How does the Defender ride on the trail?
This machine was great on the trail
Anyone that owns machines would know why it was shaking lmao
What a yuppie.....smh
Joshua I'm not young, and I don't live in an urban area. Hopefully in your future you will learn it is not nice to stereotype people, classify them, insult them and call them names. As hurtful and as insulting as your comment is you have a right to your opinion...by the why not knowing me I understand your comment...not sure why you had to go out of your way to hurt and insult me. It sad if doing so made you feel better. Please stay healthy and safe may God bless you.
I hope no one every calls you names or stereotypes you...it hurts and is quite ugly.
