i think stockers are in between the 3/2 and 4/1. I noticed my 3/2 douglas wheels are a little wider up front than my stocks

Typically the largest arms they make are +3 and even with 3:2 you are just at 50" so stock wheels will put you under 50" and 4:1 will also be under 50". Most axles are +2/+4 which will also put you under 50" with stock wheels so you dont have much to worry about. You can also change the spacers on the axle to get to where you want to be. Gforce lonestar rpm durablue will all be fine

Okay thanks so much. I want to go with +3 aarms and +4 axle think that would be good? I noticed a few people go with +2 is there nay reason for this? Dont you want it to be wide?

+3 with 3/2 rims will put you over 50". If you want plus 3's your gonna need 4/1 rims

X2, I was at 52"+ when I had my 3:2 wheels with my +3 arms.

plus 3's and offset rims will be over 52 even i just ran out and measured with 23 7 10 on front its 52 1/2" wide and with g force axle on full width with offset rims it makes it 51 1/4. and thats with 20 11 9 on rear.

center of the tires rests at about 42 1/2" on the front.
