XP Aluminum wheels on 2010 Sportsman 500

What will I need besides tapered lug nuts to make these work? Will the studs be long enough? Will I need spacers? Any help is greatly appreciated!

i like your pic. those wheels look good on your machine. i have an 2001 sportsman that i was thinking about throwing a set of xp wheels on. i know you said that you had to get 2 inch spacers but what type of tapered lug nuts? did you have to get them from polaris? if you have any more pics please post them.

thanks!

Sorry don't have any more pics at the moment. I went with lug nuts like this:

do the tires stick out much? what brand of spacers did you go with? i've never put wheel spacers on anything, just wondered. i ended up buying a 2007 sportsman 450 that looks almost identical to your 500. the xp wheels are going to look sweet on it.

The tires actually sit exactly where the stock tires sit without spacers. No sure on the brand of spacers just make sure the outer surface where the rim sits is smooth and doesnt have the ledge where the steel rim would sit.
