adam46706 Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 i was told that you could turn your front tires around and make them more offset but there is no way you can the air valve stem hits the brake caliper was the guy that told me this full of shit or did i not understand what he was saying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTShee Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 Your right, you have to relocate the valve to the other side and plug the old hole for it to work. You can also buy offset front rims which do the job too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Checkmate Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 I think they make some type of flush mount valve stem for the people that flip the fronts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcharne Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 syntaxx and checkmate are right. i have the valvestems. i think they are a pain in the ass. when my tire goes low i have to unscrew the cap, put the needle in a tube that screws into the valve, then put air in, then unscrew the freakin thing, then put the cap on.

03limitededition Posted January 14, 2004 Report Share Posted January 14, 2004 You should be able to drill a new hole on the other side of the rim, then put two valve stems in the rim, put the valve stem on the rotor and caliper side in backwards. Cheap, and you can always turn the rims back around if you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
