Narrowed or Not

Post by Gary1719 »

Okay here is one for you. What about a narrowed beam 1 or 2 inches yes or no. Will the tires hit the tub. i want to keep my tires from hanging out. I could also use a rim with an offset to keep it tucked in. What are your Idea's out their on this subject.

I would narrow the front track with the off set of your wheels. If it doesn't work out well, you can put your old wheels back on. I would stay away from a wide profile tire if you're worried about hitting the body. My nephew put 65 profile tires on his Baja and they hit the wheel wells in a tight turn.
