So I just installed 2" wheel spacers on my 2021 700-2 deluxe and was standing back admiring my handy work. And thought the front wheel CL looks wider than the rear that can't be right so I set up and marked the center of my tiers.
Shure enough the front is 1 1/2" wider than the rear? Has anyone else noticed this?

just out of curiosity I measured the out side to outside of tiers. I'm running 27x9-12 front & 27x11-12 rear.
63 1/2" front outside
63 3/4" rear outside
I guess it works but would expect the rear to be running wider than the front

You said the front was an inch and a half wider?
center line of wheel is 1 1/2" wider!
Rear tiers are wider than front tiers. Resulting in outside measurement being the same.
The reason for the question is all of my other machines are wider in rear than the front

I'm about to get spacers however I just measured center on center of front tire 51" and rear 50"

Measure several times..... am I missing something?

Thinking about 1 1/2" spacer for the front and 2" for the rear for stability, we are on a lot of steep sidehills.

I came up with the front being 1 1/2 inches wider C to C But if you measure to the outside of the tiers front and rear are the same width.
I just put same size tiers all the way around and need to add spacers to the rear now! Every mod seams to require more mods to fix the other mods. Its like being trapped in the wallet draining mod circle of life. o_Oo_Oo_O
