I was putting on my new spacers today & noticed that one of my back wheels were crooked & when riding it would wobble. I havent ever noticed this & you cant even feel it unless you look behind you. I'm sure its not the spacer I'm almost postive it is the wheel. What should I do? I took it to the local wheel shop & they said they could do nothing with it. Can anyone help or do I have to go buy a new wheel?

One more thing, is there any precautions I can take so that this wont happen again. ThanksWILL

 

I dont think they can fix a wheel to be perfect again. YOu may have to end up getting a new one. The only precaution you can take that I know of is to leave it in the garage and what fun is that? Good luck gettin it fixed.

 

Are you sure your axel or hub is not bent. The wolverines are notorius for weak rear axels. You add 2.5" whhel spacers to the rear, you just make the situation worse... check into it and let us know.

If the axel was bent wouldnt that mean both wheels would act crooked? When I was looking at the hub it did look alittle off but still not sure. I'm going to be putting on my new shocks tonight so I'll take the wheel off & investigate alittle harder. WILL

 

The easiest and quickest way to tell if it is the wheel or the axle is to swap the tires side to side and see if it still wobbles on the same side or the opposite side. That will tell you quick!

 

TrailBoss,thanks it turns out its the axel.
