Wider is better for motocross but not xc

But this is a 300ex he is talking about. +4 in the rear would be the same as a stock 400ex, right ? That means he gets alot more stability but its still not too wide for xc:scary:

Do you have stock wheels ? Nice looking 300 though:eek:

If you widen he axle make sure your a arms arent too much less wide than the rear, or it handles funny.

yeah i have douglas rims so them probably make it little wider also. but i have put stock rims on and it doesnt make it much different.

yeah it does handle funny with the rear end way wider than the front!! hats why i got 400ex a-arms and shocks and OMG did that help so much better!!

50 1/2 if ****ing wide for a 300, i have a +4 on my 400 adn its only 50 even!!! and in know for sure a stock 400 is a tit wider than stock 300, u must have some offset wheels or something!!:huh
