Default Front wheel spacers???

I have the wider durablue rear axle.But the front is stock..I know everyone is gonna say buy a arms but 700 bucks is a lotta money right now.Would wheel spacers be better than leaving the front width stock,,,turns my rims inside out or should i just leave it????

some will disagree with me on this, but i wouldnt ever run spacers, think about it, it puts more presure on the ball joints,hubs, tie rods and steering stem and top it all off what if you make a jump or something and you break a ball joint or the front wheel comes off? you'll be in for a ride, oh not to mention it will put more leverage on your shocks too, now dont get me wrong for drag racing they might would be fine but i wouldnt run them on anything of mine.. just my 2 cents

oh yea, and flipping your wheels would be fine you will need to drill a new valve stem hole on the other side of the rim and put one in the old valve stem hole backwards that would be you safest way of making it wider without a-arms

flipping the wheels is ok except that flipped wheels tend to bend spindles. it still stresses the ball joint and stuff too. it's better than spacers. spacers are good fpr flat track or draggin or al least thats all i'd ever use them for. if youir dead set on buying a set though i have a set that wil fit your quad

I was just curious because i have the wider durablue rear axle and the front is stock.I dont race so i guess i should be good.She seems to handle really well though.Much better than the Raptor.Wow what a difference..
