fliping front rims

[olmick]

i went today and had shorter vavle stems installed and it still hits the brake caliber, so does anyone know where i can get some invisible stems? if not then where should i drill a hole in the rim on the other side?

I Posted this already but if you scroll down and look at the bottom you will see my topic, but i went to discount tire and had them order me some flush mount valves for almost 20 bucks it was like 18.50 or something and it came in a pack of 4, they installed it on my front rims and when i get my dune rims im going to put the other 2 i have left on those but yeah to answer your ? Flush Mount Valves :beer:

 

Oops Sorry It In the Suspention Towards The Bottom

pull regular rubber valve stems in backwards(butt out)

then drill a new valve stem hole in the barrel(the flat part) of the wheel......

did it on my 03 blaster and it worked awesome.....

alot cheaper then 18.50 for flust mounts

Well $20.00 Bucks Compared to Drilling A Hole In Your Rims, Um Ill Stick With The Flush Mount But Hey Do What You Want That Was Just My 2 Cents But Good Luck If You Drill Them :beer:

I had a set drilled and had no problems..........with the flush kit wouldn't you have to take the wheel off to check air pressure or put air in

I've got multiple sets of rims that have been drilled and have not had a single problem with them.

just curious as to why you dont just buy a wider offset rim, flipping the stockers usually isnt a good idea

 

just my 02

Mine had flipped rims for about 10 years, never had a problem.

wouldnt be any different than checking the tire pressure normaly.....

 

What is the difference in buying a off set rim, basically all they did was put the stem on the opposite side.

I'd rather get a 3.00 valve stem, drill the rim on the "new" outside, and be able to check the air pressure in my tires without having to take the rim off....

 

Tell you what, better get a steering stabilizer though...it'll rip your bars out of your hands a lot easier...

[White06Shee]

Very true About Riping The Bars out Of Your Hands That Hapens Alot While Riding, And The Steering Stabilizer Isnt A Bad Idea Either

[wood]

i have a real stupid question,why flip the rims.

[dajogejr]

Because it will widen the front end 3 to 4 inches...

[helldriver]

why not just buy wider a arms. or get offset rims?

 

unless its a money issue :shrug:
