i was wondering because thay add 2in in the back on each tire and 1 1/2 on each front tire. They are $93 for each set.

well it cheaper then a axle but if you jump at all you will bend the stock axle really easy.

if you do mostly trail and pit riding then it would be worth it.

But if you want to do mx or even track with your buddies then I woudn't recomend it. you will bend the stock axle. for the front you can just flip your rims. that will get you alot wider. my friend did it to his 300ex and he is 1" wider then a stock 400ex. But you will get more bump steerand it will handle weird a little.

look in the for sale forum. I got a LSR axle for 200$ and LSR a-arms for 330$ and if you go with something of less quality like durablue you could probably get it for alot less.
