Whats your guys opinions on these? They say they give you an extra 4". I was thinking of putting them on the rear end. Good or bad?

You might want to put some on the front as well. Spacers are a cheap way to make your ride more stable.

 

Yeah you are right. I was thinking of reversing the tires on the front end.

 

I wouldn't do it that way. The offset of the rims will cause added stress on your lugs. The way it is set up now, the end of your lug nuts are set back about 1-2" from the outside of the rim. If you flip them, there will be about 4" hanging off the lugs. That leverage can cause some damage. Also the offset of the rim protects your calipers and all the fun stuff in there. With spacers in front your calipers and stuff will still be exposed more but the offset will still be the same.

 

Good thinking..Do you have spacers on your bike?

 

I wouldnt put spacers on the frontit puts added stress on the tie rods and likly bend them with even a mild collision I have seen it happen a few times.

 

I ride tight trails, I need all the room I can get, so no I don't use them. Of course with the spacers you are adding a new angle of torque on everything that could result in Tie rods bending easier.

 

Definitely not a good idea.... unless you want to buy a new axle after you warp it after a good day of riding....
seriously save your money for extended axles and a-arms....

I watched a guy toast an axle in prelimes... on a brand new 450R with spacers....
again i would save your money.... the old motto you get what you pay for......
