Default I need front rims!! Help.

Does anyone have any DECENT front rims for a DS650? I would prefer the baja one with the rings but does ANYONE have any good front rims for a DS? I guess I would settle for stock front ones if they are in GOOD shape... I bent one rim severly and put 'er in the pickers after I smoked a F#ckin rock!!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img] Thanks.

Josh.

I also heard you can use 400EX front rims on a DS if the holes are drilled out bigger or something... Is this true? If it is then I would be interested in a pair of 400EX front rims.

pushin, yes they will work but you'll need to do some take a file to the rim near the lug holes along the inner ring, if you look at your rims you'll notice that the stock ones have a curve where they would hit the hub, if you want me 2 show u a picture of where i'm talkin bout just give me ur email, i tried this wit my buddies ex front tires

Thanks lilnotts! So I just have to do a little grinding on the inner wheel so it don't hit the hub. I got it, but is the bolt pattern the same? Will it just bolt right up after I grind the inner piece down? Unless I can get some DS650 rims for a good price I will get some 400EX rims because I should be able to get them cheaper anyway from a friend that has Honda parts up the ***!!!....... Wait, raptorjay has some 400EX wheels.....

the bolt pattern on the honda fron is 4/144, which is wat bomb tried to do but ended up wit 4/143, but the bolt holes line right up with the bomb hub, i tried this wit my buddy (yellowexracer) rims, he has stock rim and itps both hit in the same spot, when you try to put them on you'll see exactly wat i mean,
