I would recomend a 3/2 or 4/1. I would not recomend that you get more off set to make the front wider because it will make the steering twitchy.

Many will say that 4/1 handle better than 3/2 because there is less feedback. I agree with this. 4/1 will make your quad narrower in the front because the stock wheels are 3/2. This may be too narrow with stock a-arms. So, if you aren't going to get a-arms, the 3/2 might be the best choice even though they will not feel as good as the 4/1. If you intend to get a-arms, get the 4/1. Then you can get the a-arms in what ever length you want to obtain your target overall width. Remember, with 4/1 wheels, +2 a-arms will be the same as +1 a-arms and 3/2 wheels when it comes to overall width.
