What are the disadvantages of flipping front wheels? I tried this on my Raptor and the valve stems hit the caliper. Is there a way to fix this so I can flip the fronts still?

 

drill out the same size hole for valve stem on inside then take the other valve stem out and put it
in backwards so it is on the inside...not advisible though b/c the tie-rods and ends are weak
and it puts even more pressure on them

 

You will bend tieords every time you ride with them flipped.

 

works pretty good for ice racing... neew to widen out the back to match the front.

 

I rode my raptor with offset wheels for 2 years and never had a problem.
changed A-arms and bought new wheels. so I have a set of douglas .160 offsets if anybody is interested

 

My Warrior has ITP offset front wheels and I pound the hell out of them and have'nt bent anything so far. They help the Warrior handle a lot better especially around burms and cornering.

 

Firefly - Are your offset rims in good shape? If so, how much do you want for them? Thanks!

 

My 87 warrior was snapping tie rod ends every ride with my off-set rims. Spent over 300 dollars on tie-rod ends in 5 months. I broke down and purchased the aftermarket ones form Ricky Stator. Have yet to break on, and they are garanteed.
