  1. 1000-3
I have a 1000-3. Currently run the stock 9" wide front 11" rear with stock rims. I've heard front and rear rims are different offsets stock. I am looking at buying 27 or 28" motoclaw tires on sti rims. From what I found I would have to buy all 10" wide tires for this setup. All four rims would he 5+2 offset as well. So I am assuming the front and rear won't use the same track anymore right since they are all same offset? Is getting all four same width a good idea? Thinking sti hd4 rims and 28 motoclaw tires. 28x10x14. 5+2 offset. Thoughts?

Im running 5+2 rear and 6+1 front to get same track front and rear, no spacers. Rotating tires front to back is out.

IF track width is a concern for you; 1” spacer make sure to torque it down and use thread locker on the lug nuts hidden behind the wheels.
