i want to buy some itp baja race wheels. They come in 4 + 1 and
3+2 offsets. I know stock is 4+1, but is that the better offset or should i go with 3+2. I dont want to put any extra stress on my spindles.

What do you mostly ride trails,mx,xc

Mx and Large open trails you may want the 3-2 offset
Tight technical XC 4-1 offset.

well i just started doing hare scrambles this year. So woods riding gets tight at times. I want to try mx, but was also thinking that if i went with wider a-arms, i would want to keep the wheels stock spacing. So i think that the 4+1 would prob be best.

im pretty sure stock is 3:2, and if you go wider in a-arms you should go to a 4:1

If you have a-arms or are going to buy a arms i would say keep stock off set cause you dont want to get to wide and go over the width limit.

4:1 is the absolute best option for handleing but it makes the quad narrower. 3:2 makes quad wider
