Default widening my 250ex

i ride a lot on my track at my house. in the turns it is tippy, so i turned the front tires around. it helped quite a bit but the valve stems hit the brake calipers and was wearing them down, so i put them on the right way. has anybody else tried this? and should i get some front wheel spacers?

i have tried ait and it is not a good thing to do i would just get a +2 axle and wheel spacers in the front and that should work a lot better.

The balooney stock tires on the 250 make it push a little in turns, and make it a little tippsy. They are the first thing one should replace!

I run Holeshot XC's on ITP T-9 rims. The tires are wider (and square) and the rims are wider than stock. This combination makes the machine +3 in back and +2 in front. Solves all the problems!
