hemimike Posted August 24, 2004 Report Share Posted August 24, 2004 I just bought a set of douglas front wheels for the banshee and noticed that the offset was different than my buddies douglas wheels. His wheels make the banshee wider(less backspacing) and my wheels keep the origional width. Any answers? I know you can turn the wheels around and use short valves or just move the valve to the other side but he bought his wheels the same time I did and I would figure that we would get the same wheels.

Banshee~ Posted August 24, 2004 Report Share Posted August 24, 2004 you have to ask for it...call them and tell them you told them to be offset and they might trade them in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locogato11283 Posted August 24, 2004 Report Share Posted August 24, 2004 yea usually you need to specify. i think there is the 1/5 and 2/3 offsets. they may trade you if you are lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tats4life Posted August 24, 2004 Report Share Posted August 24, 2004 the offsets are 4/1 or 3/2. sounds like you got the 3/2 offset and your buddy has the 4/1 mx offset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fixitrod Posted August 24, 2004 Report Share Posted August 24, 2004 I had the offset rims and didn't like them. To much bump steer. And, when I got into soft stuff it'd pull me around. I switched back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
