Scrubtherubber Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 think i went a bit over board? got new itp rims and they appear to be more offset then my previous itp rims. I think lonestar +4, tusk +1.34 hubs and these rims might be to far. i mainly trail ride, and sand/dirt pits with hills. opinions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WINDYCITYJOHN400 Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 My wife's bike will go 52" wide in back but I only do that for the dunes. When I hit the woods of The Badlands, I narrow it to 47". If your wider than 50" your no longer an ATV. ( don't ask me what it's called then....I'm just sharing federal paramters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springer Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 besides fitting in trails, i dont know what the issue would be going as wide as possible. however, going wider in the rear than the front will make it turn and handle funny.

thomas h. Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 Do you think he's compensating for something ? J/k it's just 2" wider than most Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 You're fine if you're not over 50". Even some 50" trails aren't 50" though. How wide are the trails you ride? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joey83 Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 I like it! Besides fitting the only downfall I can think of is more leverage to bend the axle. you'd have to be getting some serious elevation and come down really crooked to bend it though. Looks good.

Scrubtherubber Posted April 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 im gonna ditch the tusk hubs, and go with some lonestar ones. took her out today with my other rims and tires its great, these rims are way too offset it almost feels like its gonna roll easier. the tires are 20 by 10 by 9 is that the stock size?
