crazywheelerman365 Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 Just flip the front ones around and be done with it Ive been running like this for years , as for those spacers I wouldnt run those things if somebody gave em to me ! They might be ok for the small shit but if you wanna go big you need to flip the wheels or get longer arms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twincylinder Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 I also saw someone wipe out pretty bad because of one of those shitty wheel spacers. They might stand up to a few jumps but they wont take abuse for too long. In my exsperience anyway. Why take the chance of wheel spacers when you can flip the rims for alot less than spacers and feel much safer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justintoxicated Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 dont play around just get wider a-arms so your geometry is not all jacked up. Course you will need new shocks too! Otherwise your best bet is offset rims. I guess flipping is is kinda like getting offset rims. Have fun taking the tires off and putting them back on. If your just doing the fronts and have a bead braker go for it.. Don't use spacers if you jump at all... Offset rims and spacers are going to mess up your gemotry and may make it harder to steer.

dajogejr Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 He's right... Not to mention, rocks, ruts, etc. get deflected more through the front end and to the handle bars, as well. However....A Arms and Shocks are a big investment...$$ wise...so, it's up to you to make the decision... A steering stabilizer is a great, great idea when you start to widen the front end and change the geometry.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
