    thorpe - those were the ones i was refering to. I am not sure how comfortable i feel about taking those on some of the trails i cover. I would be afraid something would snap or break.

    Bought the ones off of dratc.com but haven't tried them yet. They make it look sweet though!

    I have cheap bolt extender spacers like these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/4-YAMAHA-WHE...5c2d01&vxp=mtr

    I ride pretty hard and never had a problem with them. I'm not jumping though. I know they are more fragile and weak than real spacers but they held great for me.

    I've got a set like Thorpe's- I beat the snot out of my SX & they're great, no problems.
    Remember to use Loc-Tite on the threads............

    Have definatly been considering these but i was curious if these would fit? http://www.chrome-addiction.com/g-du...cers-42737.php I have a old pair of these on my 350x and they are the same bolt pattern as an sx but i figured i would ask the experts here. This is obviously cheaper for me and would give me a even wider stance.

    IMO, I do not like the long bolts...

    Stay as far away as you can from them!! They are crap,the nuts Loosen ALL the time and egg your wheels. They needed tightened after EVERY heat back in the day. Most guys just let them eat their wheels up. The ones Thorpe advised are the ones you want. Loctite em and you'll love em!
    Please help those who cannot help themselves.

    ALWAYS buying Museum quality machines,3 and 4 wheels. And any and ALL ,NOS parts,EVERY brand.

    I am turning my PM's Off,my Email is billsracing@hotmail.com,put 3WW in the subject. Thanx!
