Title: rotating front rims aposed to spacers??? Post by: CrazyCat420 on February 01, 2005, 05:23:31 PM Has any one tried or heard of the idea of rotating the front rims to achieve a bit more of a wider stance?? I heard a long time ago if you take the tire of the rim remove the origanal vaulve stem and replace it with a shorter one back words and drill a new hole on opposite side, and install another vaulve stem facing out, in theory to clear brake rotors on the inside?
has any one done this before?????? would it realy work??? Title: Re: rotating front rims aposed to spacers??? Post by: dreth on February 01, 2005, 05:32:14 PM i run that exact set up on my mx tires and it works fine

I had to take the stem cap off to clear the rotors and they were still very close . I got nervous about how they would clear under full compression of the front so I turned em back around . Definatly made it a couple inches wider .
