off set front rims

[trost66]

I was just wondering what people thought of the off set front rims. Do alot of people use them and are they good for the quad. I just puchased a set .

Which offset did you get? I hope not 2+3

[trost66]

yes they are is that bad or what. what should i do to fix

[trost66]

i bought some works shock a few months back. I have stock a arms. So i was trying to widen the front end a little without buying new shock and a arms. I just bought the works shocks and they are set for stock a arms. I would hate to have to buy new shocks for a different set of a arms. I figured off set rims would widen it a little.

The wideoffset rims creat some nasty bumpsteer :( and can reak havock on you tie rods.

Would I be able to flip the rim and 3+2 and be okay. they are 2+3 now i didn't no if that would work. They are douglas rim 190. I was just wondering if it would be okay to flip them.

leave them offset they will be fine if you arent racing... i have them on my old 300ex and never had a problem never jumped higher than 10-12 feet but im sure they will be fine as long as u arent doing back to back flat landings

i was thinking about racing though. We have a track we made and it had some 40 ft double and table tops.

Yes, you can flip them back but you will have to drill a new hole for the valve stem on the opposite side. Install a stem backwards in the origional hole.
