New Wheels

[BOJANGLES]

OK - wheels mounted - that was a lot of work. Any help on tire pressure is appreciated. Here is preview until I find a good place to take some pictures....

I usually run 40psi on the street and anywhere from 20psi-40psi offroad with my Grabbers.

Nice!!!!! Julian's and the Raptor R and XT are the only ones I've seen with the Enduro's. I was originally wanting them a long time ago but couldn't find any place that had the correct bolt pattern. You need to post the pics!

OK - here are a couple pics. I need to do the front perch mod or cut my fender wells - I get a little rubbing when turning under compression.

I also have a slow leak on the secondary valve stem on 2 of the wheels - I need to figure our how to fix this. Is there anything better than plumbers tape to put on threads before installing?

I dropped about .4 mpg with the new wheels, braking takes more effort, and the transmission downshifts more frequently, but I think they look awesome!

The second valve stem is for the inner liners and i had the exact same problem on my methods. You are going to need to let all the air out of the tire, remove the secondary valve stem and red lock tight it. Just do all four now because the others will start leaking. also, re-torque the bolts with the air out of the tires. After that, they should stay perfect.

The wheels and tires look great by the way...

What sizes did you go with?

 

[tnsbruce]

Thanks for the tips - I will get the secondary valve stems squared away today and re-torque everything.

Wheels are 17x9 with 0 offset, tires are 35x12.5x17
