    Front end width?

    I'd like to get to about 45" without having to run wheel spacers or run flipped rims. I'll have a standard 3/2 offset wheels. Is this doable with +2 arms or is that too wide?

    45-46" is perfect for XC racing.

    Legal width is 50 so you should try somewhere around there think about the ltr stock is 50inches and it runs xc just fine

    A full 50 inches is far too wide for XC racing. A stock LTR is only 49" and most narrow it up an inch or two either 4:1 wheels and Z400 hubs or negative A-arms and axle.

    At least for me, anything over 47" has me playing pinball with the trees.
