just wanted to you know from my bad luck,do not use polaris 5.350 wheels
if you studded on out side edges of your track.
problem is when stud passes under the wheel the track is being push downwards and stud is forcing the track upwards.I was using an 1" ice claw
96 studs 1.175"down the center and 24 on each edge.The force of the wheel split the track on the ends of fiberglass reinforcment bars of the track.
70 miles with these new wheels installed through trails,got on the lake 1st high speed @170km track came apart.Needless to say track scrapped.
replaced track with a new Hacksaw 1" and 144 pins down the center and new original yamaha wheel.
