Wheel Flipage

[warriorrider13]

Im going flip my wheels as soon as I get her back, do you HAVE to drill new holes for the stem(s). I know that I will have to take the tires off everytime I wanna put air in them. And also will it affect my traction because my tires are like the ones of the raptor 700.( they are like little "<" )

i think you do have to drill new holes. just take it to a local tire shop they should do it for not much money

You will have to do something with the valve stems, either drilling like I showed you, or the easier way which is to find the flush mount valve stems. To correct the tread direction, just put the tires and wheels on the opposite side they were before they were flipped. (Left tire to right side, right tire to left side).

I just flipped the rears , kept the stems on the inside . The fronts I removed the stems got 4 new ones from my Yamaha dealer less than $2 each . Placed 2 in my stock holes upside down . Drilled new holes on the flat surface of the backside . I have not had any problems with this mod . You won't have to remove tires to air up.
