Default Offset wheels for the Z????

Can anyone suggest some offset front wheels so I can take advantage of my Lonestar extendable axle?? I dont really want to run wheel spacers and I need a new front wheel anyway.

I am not near my bike at the moment but arent they offset allready? I have seen people put them on the opposite way on Raptors and just re drill the valve stem and invert the old one.

Douglas red label 3+3 off set , click my sig or my gallery for pics , most offsets are a 2+4 which puts stress on the ball joints , the 3+3's are dead even .... I love them...... Make sure you go an inch taller on the tires or they will look really small , you can tell by my pics but live and learn I guess.

FsT4WrD,sweet looking KFX man,and that was exactly the answer I was looking for. I dont know about the inch taller tires though,I was gonna run 20 in front and 18 in rear. This would be my "race" set of wheel/tire combo. Or is the offset of the wheel enough to compensate? Maybe a 21 front??

The offset will compensate , if I put my stock tires next to my offsets its about an inch/inch 1/2 diff . I was worried that it would bring my front down but its still level . For the package I paid around 200 to my door for the red label 3+3 offsets with the shredders from Rocky Mtn . you have to call them to order cause the dont list offset tire and wheel packages . I love them , they made the front so much more lighter and it turms on rails.
My front is almost dead even width with the rear now.

So,do you have the stock 22/20 combo?? I'm just wanting to widen it a bit cheaply,and I figured offset wheels would be my answer.Maybe I could just run the 20/18 combo on stock offset and still get the same benefit cuz' the Z will be closer to the ground??

Don't know what the offset is, by I run ITP rims and Holeshots up front, and it is +2 wider than stock.
