i'm getting ready to put some wheel spacers on the rear wheels .but, i keep seeing post about not jumping with wheel spacers?i noticed about half of the people i race against have spacers,the other half said the had them until they got an axle.nobody that i talked to at the races said anything bad about spacers (except the plastic durablue).i flipped my front rims around to give me the extra width in the front ,but guess what i did last weekend racing i bent a steering rod in practice .no big deal i just bent it back and ran 2 motos? anyway i don't wanna run spacers if it puts me in more danger of getting hurt! it sucks to be poor!

get an axle if you have the money .if not buy spacers .it works great for me yet, no bent axle or anything in the front
