Help with Axis Decades and tire size?
Hello,
I just received my new bop xb! I am buying Axis Decades for my xb and I am considering tire size. My thoughts are to run 215/35s up front and either 225/35 or 225/40s in the rear. I plan to use RS*R springs to drop the frot 2" and the back 1.2". I tow my jet ski and have stereo equipment in the rear so the rear drop with sag seems good. The fitment of 225s in the rear is not clear to me.
Spacers are the next issue, with the above wheels and tires what spcers should I run? Will just the otg shimswork or will I need a small spacer too? Flush fitment is desired.
Also I would like to support a SL member if possible, so if anyone knows a good place to buy them with tires I would appreciate the info!
Awesome board as well!
Thanks John

well the se people happen to know the right people, the 225 will more likely than not hit the trailing arm on the rear suspension, but since they are different offsets they sit really flush, in reality there are no spacers needed, when i was at axis (read quit last thursday) i had the decades on my ex with no spacers, and it looked great, my adive though if you want spacers, get the ones on the backside of the brake, ie one ton garages, so yoyu dont lose thread space
