I'm wanting to make the front end of my Raptor a little wider. I found some bolt in valve stems that are short enuff to clear the rotor and plan on flippin' the tires around so the tread pattern is right (directional tires)also. I was just wondering if any of you have tried this and If anyone has had any problems. Let me know

 

Sure, many Rap owners do it, but beware! Do not jump with the rims flipped, unless you enjoy spending money on tie rods and ends.

I have a bunch of buddies that flip them just for flat track racing, then flip them back for regualr riding. Most of them have learned the hard way when flipping the wheels and riding in trails and or jumping, it get's costly to keep replacing tie rods and ends.

Do it the right way, by some a-arms! Remeber too, you will also need shocks!

 

I have mine flipped. The only problem I have is I keep bending tie rods. I have found a fix for that but haven't taken advatage of it. I really enjoy it being wider. I also have my Axis shocks valved for them.
