Default WHEEL SPACERS OR A_ARMS

I do not have a lot of $ so I was wondering if the wheels spacers were ok to use on a blaster. Does anyone have wheels spacers or does everyone just get extended a_arms?

Flip the front rims. I believe it makes it 2 inches wider on each side? Wheels spacers are good to. There is this thing on ebay for 50 or something called the "wide ride kit". Check that out too.

thanks, flipped the front rims-but kind of looks retarded with the back inside to the front.

Blasters are pretty light. Are you going to be doing any big jumping? You migth be safe with just spacers. A-arms are best though, but a lot more money.

rockymountainatv sells DuraBlue Spacers under $60.00. I just put a set on my warrior and spun the front and rear rims around.

If yu're already bottoming out, anything you do to make it wider is going to make you bottom out worse. With your wheels wider, there will be more leverage on your shocks. I would leave it the way it is untill you can afford to buy shocks too.
