how wide can you go?

What's the widest tire you can fit with a stock maxi swingarm?

Will a 3" tire fit a standard puch 2.5 rim?

It most certainly will not. 2.5 is as big as it goes. Your rim should only be a 2.25 at most anyway. 2.75 will not even fit all the way into teh swingarm (having learned this the hard way)

Re: how wide can you go?

Aww, that's too bad. Gonna have to buy an aftermarket swingarm.

Re: how wide can you go?

yeah, 3 is not a good idea on those rims and totally wont fit between your forks or swing arms(stock)

1"............. should read how skinny can u go

Re: how wide can you go?

I know not much about de tiers either. Lets say you have a swing arm that fits the wide tire, but is it safe to put that on the 2.5 rated rim? is it gonna pop of or something?

Re: how wide can you go?

I mean 2.25 rated rim, is say 2.75 gonna pop off?

You can put a 2.75 on a 2.25 rim, it will hold up just fine. It's been done by a few peopel on here who own magnums, but no maxi will take it, as the rear fender gets in the way as well. So you'd have to cut the fender off our widen it quite a bit.

Re: how wide can you go?

I have not been able to get 2.5 into maxi swingarms.

Re: how wide can you go?

good to know. good to know, thanks
