"rigged" big red 250es rear wheel spacer?

[rebel33382]

I put a pair of foreman 400 rims and mudbogs on the 250es, they look great and fit almost perfect, I need like a 1/8" of spacing for the muffler and for the frame on the left wheel. is there any quick solutions for this??

If you were any good at welding or fabricating, I would say make up a set of wheel spacers that bolt to the stock hubs using longer bolts instead of studs to extend it a couple inches on each side. They make these, but I dont think you will find any for the big red bolt pattern rim or hub. Good luck!

I am looking for a home made quick fix...any ideas???

Are those offset rims? If so, try turning them around. The valve stem will be on the inside though.

or stick a 1/4 inch washer between the wheel and the hub

would that weaken the studs though brapp?

Dang beat me to the post. I was going to say the same thing. Get longer grade 8 studs and you have extensions.

I also did the wheel flip on my wifes quad. Gave it like a 2 1/2 inch extension..lol Them old polaris wheels sink way under the plastics, flip'em over and gain a few inches.

I am going to go home and get some washer and bolt extensions for the new X! :naughty:

so you are saying punh the factory studs out the hub and put some longer studs in with washers. where do you get longer studs from??
