We purchased the 2015 Viking VI yesterday and want to put a 2-3" lift kit on it. What's the largest size tires and wheels I can put on it with this size lift and not rub? I'm a newbie to the side by side world (currently own 4 - Yamaha Grizzly 4 wheelers) so any suggestions for mods would be extremely appreciated.

I'm running 28" with no lift and haven't had a rub, That's on my 3 seater though. BUt I'm sure you'll be able to at least go that big.
As far as other mods..... one thing you should check on is the heat shield between the exhaust and the diff, after market cltch kit. From there it's whatever you want

30"s will rub with a 3" lift, I have both. I removed the inner mud guards and that helped a lot, but they still rub when turned during suspension travel

Just received my 30" Balackwater Evo's, going to mount them to my STI HD bead locks and hopefully I will be in the Bucket club. Cheers

I'm running 30s with my 3" lift. Love them but if you go 30s plan on clutch work. I'm saving up for my jbs now

29.5 terms Viking vi. 2 inch highlighter. Rubs a little fully turned at times. No harm done that inner piece can be removed if preferred. I don't see it as an issue
