Well i just got rid of my +3 a-arms and 3-2 offset rims which was VERY wide. I have it setup for only MX. I have decided to race mostly XC so i ended up getting +2 housers( i couldnt find any used +1's) Im gonna run the +2's and 4-1 rims, this setup sould be fine right? Give me your imput. I will be using XC tires and have the suspension setup higher etc. let me know what you guys think, opinions etc. thanks!

It might work for gncc, might be a little tight though. But most other series are a lot tighter. I run mid south and my quad is about 1" narrower than stock and I still rub trees on both sides at times. I would just kinda talk to racers who run the races you are wanting to and see what they say. If there are any stock ltr's running them then I would say that the +2 would fit.

it shouyld be 47.5 inches wide. really too wide for an ideal xc quad, but really no wider than a predator, so its not too bad

My +2's with 4:1 wheels are too wide for the trails, which made me go with +.5's. Depending on how competitive you want to be, +2's w/4:1 will fit, it's just hard to rip through.

I run GNCC with +2 and 3-2 off set and am 49 inches wide in the front and 50 in the rear and do ok. Just have to slow down at some spots and make sure I can fit through. I want to get it down to about 46 inches. Will work, but will slow you down some.
