I had Polaris rock sliders put on my new RZR and, at the time, thought it was a good idea. I now realize that they cause me to exceed the 50 inch width restriction by 2 inches. Will this be a serious problem? Have others experienced any problems with this on the Wayne or other trails?

Thanks,

Jim

I put some on my rzr before realizing it also. I'm wondering the same thing. I've only had the rzr for a couple months but I think the sliders have already saved me some rocker damage. We've got a pretty rocky creek mixed in with our local trails.

I havent been stopped yet. I have rock sliders and a 3"lift with 26" tires which puts me around 53"

Glad to hear that. I'll still have to put the stock wheels and tires back on for Wayne. I got the msa patriot wheels with the -47 offset. I measured the other day and I looked to be close to 60" in the rear. That's with the 12" wide mudlites on the rear. I love it but I'm sure its not going to fly at Wayne. The stock painted aluminum wheels that came one the le are still decent looking though.

I need to put the stock wheels and tires on to ride Wayne.
If not then I go up on top of the bridge edging with the tires.
Some bridges that you approach on an angle are easy to miss with the back tires if you are over 50".

We've been riding there a bit lately and there are definately some tight spots. We've managed to get through all of them so far with a bit of room to spare. The bridges are a little scary but again, no problems so far.
