wheel flip on trx 250x

[4cfed]

so just like the blasters you can pick up a good amount of width to the front end by flipping the tires,.. except they have hydro brakes and the valve stems will hit.
i read somewhere on line you can get almost flish mount valve stems ,

also a friend said his 250r had ther fronts flips with the normal valve stem put in fromt the ouside in, so the 'filler' part was inside the tire, and drilled a new hole on the other side of the rim, where would do this???? a tire shop? my self? i dont wanan fk up my only set of front rims for it

Just get some stems from an auto store. They have a tool to pull the stems in or you could possibly make up something. I would just drill the hole and have them put the ones you buy in. I dont think a tire place would drill the rim for you. A tire place shouldn't charge more then $5 is you don't do it yourself.

yeah i know i can do it my self, but i still would have to take the rims and tires in to have them dismounted and mounted... i might as well wait tel iget new rubber for the front

You should be able to just brake the bead and reverse the existing stem and drill a new hole on the other side.Just slide a piece of wood between the rim and tire to keep it out of the way.Or drill the hole first,then break the bead and do it.
