The Origin comes with a 36 spoke 18 inch diameter rim 2.5" wide. Can-am also offers a Pulse that comes with a 17 inch 4.25 wide aluminum tubeless wheel or rim.

I chose the tire pictured thinking for being off the bike and pushing and then maybe having to scrape mud out.  It vibrates the bike at around 10 mph and kind of kicks sideways when it spins in the limited testing I have done. 

3 pounds heavier so now the bike weighs 423 pounds.  I would want 40 spoke wheels for this weight.  Do you think the spokes stretch enough to give some benefit when hitting things?

I can't add a picture lately.  The origin tires are 120-80-18 Dunlop 605 tube type 2.5" rim.

If I use a small enough 17 inch tubeless tire and also use the Pulse front fender for the rear wheel will be useable with the other rear shock mount with a metal extention piece.  Not perhaps for the adventure application.

Here is a picture of the two choices available to me without getting another 17 inch or switching out the one on the spoked wheel.
