need quick reply!!! flipping rears rims?

[yellow400ex05]

Can i flip my rear tires so the rims make it wider? Does it cause any extra stress on anything?

[Tri-valleyracin]

no dont do it. it will make it smaller and the lock things for the tapered lugs come out. thats what happed to mine after my friend put one rim on backwards and the lugs loosen up so it will mess the rim up.

I flip mine around to drag race..but for anything else dont do it.

the things?:huh
it wouldent but wouldent that make it more narrower
it only put stress on the front end if you flip the front tires not the rear

up rear rims go both ways i dont think you guys are correct also its doesnt matter in the front just watch the stem... Burgard takes offset rims plugs the original hole up and makes another one for the steam on the other site
