I have +2 with stock rims and am at 49!!So +2.5 depending on your rims may put you at 50 to 51.I hear stock offset is a .5" narrower!!!!:confused:

You will need 4:1 offset wheels to be at 50".

you know for sure 4:1 will not put you over 50" wide. your taking a chance with 3-2. The best bet is if you have a set of 3-2 bolt them on and see what it measures out to be and go from there.

4:1 offset ...all walsh a-arms are 2.5 and they all run 4:1...so 4:1 no questions asked

Shock setup and camber adjustments will also play a role in the overall width...:o

I have +3+0 SMC A-Arms with LT motowoz and my front end is about 50.5"
Using MX razr's and 3-2 Douglas wheels.

Using stock rims might be a little wider because those rims are so fat.
And my MX tires are pretty narrow, having a larger/fatter tire will make u a little wider too.

If you want to be as wide as possible w/o going over 50" then get +3 arms with 4-1 wheels.

You will need 4:1 offset to be at/around 50". Houser recommends +2 arms for mx and +2.5 arms more for desert/dune. Either way you can't go wrong with Houser:D
