WALLACE84 Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 your obviously going to have to pull off the tires, pull the valve stem out and plug it then drill a new hole for the valve stem on the offset side, then put a new vavle stem in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bansheefreak Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 or just flip them and you will have to pump them up from the inside? no the stem is too long and will get ripped offfrom the brakes.. this is why you need to put it in backwards.. if it was that easy he wouldnt have asked...

Thanks for all the info guys. Thanks again for the tires and rims loco! I had flipped rims for a while... hated them. Puts the center of the wheel in the wrong place to the hubs and creates terrible bump steer. If your just draggin it's probably fine except the whoops at the bottom of the dunes. Any trails, trees, rut or off camber hills makes it tough and the suspension becomes very soft. And, I folded an a-arm or two... stockers. Anyway, you can also buy flush mount valve stems from the speed shop for the inside hole. then you can pump them up from the inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
