Banshee rear wheels: Flipping them inside out for more stability.
#1
I was just wondering what the pros and cons were to doing this. I also want to do this to the front but i need wheel spacers or something to clear the valve stems. Where can i get these from and how much.

You can flip them inside out without much of a problem. You can corner faster/be more stable on hills with them inside out. The only real con to doing this is with the wheels inside out, there is alot more stress on your tie rods/tie rod ends. It's alot easier to bend or break them. But, if you're just careful you'll be ok.

Sure you can flip the fronts. You need to purchase 4 new valve stems unless you can remove the old ones without damaging them. Then remove the old stems and plug them in backwards so the stem plugs the hole you had. After that drill new holes on the other side and install the new stems like they need to be. I believe you have to trim some of the rubber off the reversed stems to clear the brake. You also might want to use some rtv to help with the seal. Have fun and make sure the holes are the right size. Also you need to remove the tire to do this so you can use the stem puller from the inside.

Hey Dale, I saw you at badlands.. I walked over to your truck, but I guess you were talking to Coonrod.. What do you think about those new jumps? They're really changing the track for the Full Moon series. I can't wait to get back out there!
You can turn your back wheels inside out w/no problems, but I'm not sure on the offset. It appears to me that the offset is close on both sides of the rears. You can also turn your fronts around, just like Dale says. Take your old one out, put a little silicone, or whatever around the base of athe new one, then, stick it in. Get a local machine shop, or you could do it, to drill you another hole in the wheel. Then, stick it in just like mentioned above(only right side out[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Pretty self explanitory) You will make your quad ABOUT 4 inches wider.. which really helps on trails, and track!! Good Luck
See you at practice next friday night Dale?
