    Spacers?

    I got a max II looking for wheel spacers. Not much, maybe an inch? Not too picky.
    What kindof wheel spacers fit a 5 lug hub?

    Does anyone have measurements I can go off of?

    You could check with Adair as they make may widths, Mike also has aluminum car type spacers on his (oops Jennifer's) machine.


    My new beer holder spilled some on the trails - in it's hair and down it's throat.
    Joe Camel never does that.

    Advice is free, it's the application that costs.

    You can try ebay as well. Sometimes there are pretty good deals.

    If you buy automotive type spacers, you need to make sure the OD of the spacer will fit inside your rim. There are a few different design design some are larger than others.

    Is spacing a good idea when your not planning on tracks? I'm thinking just for a more stocky look, and water stability.
    Prolly a max spacing of a 1 1/2 inch, do you guys think it would be worth it or leave it stock?

    We run spacers for track clearance and on our racers to (try and) keep them on their wheels. The only advantages I can see for a trail machine would be for looks or to keep you wider than the ruts the quads make in the mud holes.

    Yeah I got my new tires on and I think I might go without spacers, for the sake of keeping the belly up.
