Im not sure but the fronts look like 4-1.. I tried to put my hipers on the stock tires and couldnt get them to seal.. Has anyone else tried putting there stock tires on a set of hipers.. I can get it to work for some reason..

I know 4:1s will narrow the front down, so they can't be 4:1 stock, they must be 3:2s.
The back is my main concern. HiPer rears are centered, there is no offset. ITP rear wheels come offset - I just don't know what stock offset is?

The stock Dunlops are Radial 6 ply tires, they may have a different bead or sidewall than your bias ply tires you're used to mounting. Call Clancey at HiPer and ask him? 1.877.GO.HIPER

rears are 5 out 3 in. the fronts are 1.5 out and 4 in. 4+1 narrow it up by 1 inch. thats why walsh only offers a +.5 inch wider a-arms.

For the back 5+3= 8" wide rear wheel, ok cool.
For the front 1.5+4= 5.5" wide front wheel? Aren't all front wheels only 5" wide, or are these .5" wider?

most front wheels are called 5'' wide but vary from 5 - 6'' depending on manufaturers.you should have no problem mounting the tires on any of them.

I'm trying to narrow the thing with 4:1 wheels, if they're already 4:1.5" from the factory I'm not shaving off as much width as I planned.... One inch isn't bad, it's a start.

how much narrower do the z400 hubs make it overal in the rear?

1/2 " on each side! rear wheels are actually 9" wide 4 in 5 out.
Hipers are same offset in front but 1/2 inch narrower in rear each side! Z400 hubs and Hipers narrow rear by 2 inches.

wait..so if you put 3-5 rear hipers on the stock ltr it narrows it?

Rear Hipers are only 8" wide right? What ever the width is, I do know they are centered, no offset (4+4) - in and out are the same. That's all they make for the rear.

Hiper 4+1 fronts narrow the front ONE inch.
Hiper rears narrow the rear ONE inch also I believe.

That's crazy man. I talk to these people all the time and i hear different stuff from everybody. I'm not badmouthing at all, but when you talk to one on the big guys at a company, you expect them to tell you the facts.
I was just told ALL HiPer rears ARE NOT OFFSET? Same bolt pattern as the Honda right?? I was told they are ALL CENTERED and they do not offer an offset rear at all. CRAZY!!
