Description
The M12 started a revolution. Fueled by a passion for true offroad styling, we engineered this timeless design to truly accent ANY make or model ATV or UTV on the market. Eight symmetrical spokes are highlighted by simple machining accents that elongate the spokes to the edge of the rim. No other wheel style in our industry is more recognized and adored than the M12 Diesel. Attempts have been made to duplicate this style, but M12 Diesel is a MSA Wheels classic and nothing compares to the original. Gloss black paint and just the right amount of micro-machined highlights, own what most consider the best looking ATV wheel ever made.

Vehicle Information
Can-Am Defender HD7 Side-by-Side (2022-2026)
The Can-Am Defender HD7, spanning model years 2022 to 2026, is a robust utility side-by-side known for its practical power and efficiency. It is consistently powered by a 650cc Rotax ACE single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine, delivering 52 horsepower. This engine is offered across various Defender and Defender MAX trims, including Base, DPS, XT, and MAX configurations, catering to diverse needs from entry-level utility to multi-passenger transport with enhanced features. Throughout its production run from 2022 to 2026, the HD7 platform maintained a consistent core design. A minor update occurred in 2024, where the engine's torque saw a slight increase from 41 lb-ft to 42 lb-ft. While some higher-tier Defender models received suspension improvements in 2023, these were trim-specific enhancements and not a general generation change for the HD7 engine or platform. The HD7 continues to be a reliable starting point in the Defender lineup, even with the introduction of new engines and redesigned platforms for other models in 2026. FAQ
