Need wheel help, stock offset of stock wheels?

[carfanatic]

I bought some itp baja rims for my kfx450r and they don't completely cover the brake caliper. It leaves about an inch of the caliper outside the rim. I want to get the correct back spacing so the caliper will fit inside the rim.

If im not mistaking stock offsets are acutlly like 3.5/1.5 Its a odd number. You would want a 4/1 off set. You purchased a 3/2 offset i would guess?

[carfanatic]

yes. thats what was recomended, but it was wrong. I"m going to order the 4-1 now, but want to make sure the baja 4-1 will fit, hoping someone is running them.

think walsh is right . the stock rims are 5.5in though . how does they equal out to that though ? unless there a 4/1.5 ? do yall know what stock 400ex's off sets are ? i bought some and they narrowed my quad by 1/2in . i thought they were supposed to be 4/1 offsets . and had heard they widdened it .

well the stock rim is a 7x5.5 inch wheel. I guess its an odd size wheel.

its 10x5.5 aint it ?

[carfanatic]

ya maybe its 10 x5.5 I know its 5.5 though.

I think its 4.5-2

ur prolly right . the measurements are 4.25 / 1.75 . id go with 4-1.5 unless someone else knows better . that means with 4/1 that ull drop 1.5in in width under stock . wow thats alot to give up with ur 3/2's uve gained 1in . wander if u could get someone to fab u a guard to protect ur calipers ?
