I bought a ste of lt houser +2's off e-bay for 375. I want to be wide but I hear 3-2 handle like crap. I am pretty sure I am gonna go with TCS or axis. but I just want to know which rim is gonna be the best set-up for mx

The 4:1 will give you less bump steer than the 3:2. 4:1 is what you want to use for MX.

Offset rims DO NOT cause bumpsteer. Call it "feedback", or call it whatever you want, but not bumpsteer. The 4:1 will offer the most precise handling, however you will actually only sit overall at 2 inches wider instead of 4.

i have run both with no problems. yes the 3-2 give more feedback but not hugly noticable. if your going +2 i would get 4-1s. they are better. if you want a wider stance then get 3-2's.

do you have stock wheels now? get the suspension and give it a ride first. if you like the way that handles then stick with 3-2's if you want something a lil more precise then get 4-1's
