!!!!wheel spacers for mx!!!!

[TRXman86]

are there any wheel spacer that can hold up to a pounding on an mx track?

I would think that the DuraBlue ones would be pretty good though I have no personal experience with them.

I would also imagine some of the billet spacers would work well also.:

I don't think I would trust wheel spacers for racing mx, but if you are going to get some, the Durablues are probably one of the best. I would recommend the ones that are sold in the ATM store, but they don't offer a 4/100 bolt pattern for the Blaster, not sure if Durablue does or not.

I have the DuraBlue EZ-fitz....Have had them for over a year and not one problem with them on my Raptor....I have ridden with them on an MX track, held up fine...Anyways, the main problem is busting a tie rod with the extra pressure, how much does a tie rod cost??? 30 for stock, 60 for aftermarket.....Excellent aftermarket part for the buck

I wouldn't recommend wheel spacers for MX. Eventually they are going to crack. I have the Durablue 2.5" for the rear but I only trail ride.

I have dura blue front and back.

I dont ride MX but i ride pretty hard on trails and stuff and they have held up fine for me so far.

I say go for it...you'll love the difference.

A wheel spacer is what you bolt on to the front hub, OR the rear hubs on the axle that you THEN bolt your wheels to.

As the name implies, it spaces the wheel OUTWARD in order to give you more stability, and a wider stance.

These are good for off camber hills/trails, and also good for high speed cornering as you are less likely to tip over.

They are bad for tight trails and woods riding though because they may make the wheelbase TOO wide, and you may SMACK into trees, or roots!

Or rocks.
