whats the deal with reversing the front wheels, is it just putting the left on the right side and vice versa, someone
throw me a fricking bone, whats it all about[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

 

well, i'm guessing it has to do with the off-set of the stock rims. if you turn them around, you gain some width.

 

For all the LT250R guys... the valve stems interfere so you can't do it...

 

You can order the reverse offset with the valve stems on the OUTSIDE at treadepot.com. I did this with my old Yamaha Blaster instead of switching the old rims around. It gave me an extra 1" out on each side up front. When I replace my stock rims on my LT I'll get the +1 offset.

 

yes u can flip the lts stock front wheelss all you do is take the wheel off the quad then take the tire off take out the valve stem and put it in backwards then drill the proper size hole on the other side of the wheel twards the center then put in another valve stem in the correct way then reassemble and then your quad will be 4in wider

 

so there's no clearance problems w/ the brake caliper 'n stuff?
will this work on my '85 Q'Sport? i have the stock gold DID rims.

while we're at it, does anyone have a front hub for sale?

 

If you're big into jumping, won't this overstress certain parts? I've read where others have broke badly, but I've also heard where others have not. Guess it depends on the machine.

 

There are two big points to look at when reversing the wheels.
1. Is will the valve stems have enough clearance.
2. Will the put added stress on my wheels.

I don't think that it is a good idea. In most cases it is going to add stress. The wheels come this way from the factory for a reason. I would not do this. It will later cause problems. Maybe not today, maybe not tomarrow, but eventually it will. Its your quad do what you want. That is just my input on it.
