You will be pretty much exactly 50" wide. Make sure you turn up your ride height when going through tech check at a national, it will be a tight squeeze if you dont!!

Nice, I'm gonna get a +4 protrax next season and run 3+2's and I'll be the same width as you.

im running +3's with 4-1's and its 49 inches wide. Wouldn't +'s put you around 51??

Most pros run 3+2's. If you look closely you can tell. You're probly like 51 when sitting all the way down, but all you gotta do is pick up on the front end when you do tech check.

IMO i think +4 is overkill,and its def gonna be over 50 inches no matter what the offset...so i don't think there gonna be legal

I know for a fact you can run +3's on a stock frame and use 3+2 wheels and be legal, that is the same as running +4's w/ 4+1 wheels.

is there anymore bumpsteer on +4's ? and do you risk bending more parts cause of the leverage ? :confused: :confused:

no not at all. They say bunpsteer is almost nonexsistant on +4's with axis shocks.Now the leverage isnt bad cause i am not running 3+2's offset i am running at 4+1 so it kinda equals itself out 3+2 really put stress on your componets.........................that is what i was told at least;) :)
