Default cost difference... wheels spacers VS wider axle?

let me know thanks...

if I get a Raptor, I'm just trying to figure out if it's even worth it to buy wheel spacers.... if I do, I'll probably end up neding the axle and having to replace it anyways, right?

you can put a banshee axle in it, its about 3" longer. then flip the front wheels(if needed).


if you know someone with a banshee that drags he would be glad to trade you.

try spacers in the front, then axle in the back. Spacers will make a weak point in the axle.
Also, make sure you widen both the front and back at the same time. If you only widen the back, the handling will suck big time.
