I ran mx at stock width a couple of times, then I promptly ordered some extended a-arms and axle...

if you have the suspension dialed in good, and you know the proper leaning techniques then youll be fine. i ride very aggressively on 20's and stock width and i do just fine. i keep up with stock LTR's with about the same level of skill.

its all in the rider ;)

ive heard of them being used for SX without a problem. just adjust the preload quite a bit to make them stiff enough.

and you have the same plans as me.. i want to get +2.25 housers eventually.. just need to cash to buy them :p

It wouldn't be as bad if everyone else sucked or had quads that weren't 50 inches wide, but when everyone is pretty damn good and have quads set-up the way they need to be, it makes for a long day.
