help with itp / rim offset

[CarFanatic]

ok I bought a set of baja rims for my 450 and the front rims leave an inch of the caliper exposed, out side the rim. I think I have the wrong offset. Does anyone know what offset to run for the entire caliper to sit inside the rim like it does on the factory rim?

If you measure the inside of the rim and its 4in then you have 4+1's thats the narrowest you can get. If you measure the inside and its 3in you have 3+2 which are the ones I think you have. 4+1's make you see less calipar.

ya, I think its the 3+2 actually, and I need to get a deeper one. So your Saying the 4+1 will work?

Yea it will work. Just depends what you want. Are you already over the frontend width you want, or what. How come you want the 4+1's?

because the brake caliper is exposed. I want it to sit inside the rim like the factory rims do. It keep it protected from rocks and stuff.

T-9 Baja's?


Please let me know what you find out, what you go with and what the "feel" is like with them.

I got a bit confused with them myself on the front of my 400EX... but I still have my back set.

Best I can tell in the back, the offset is 1/2" difference on either side I measure on the KFX450R. I'm thinking the Baja rim itself is 1" wider than stock.

to cover the caliper up front you need teh 4+1

I actually am sending my bajas back I ordered hiper cf1's
