Best wheel spacers? Looking to widen it out some, spacers seem the best option for me. Are they safe? Stock 02 blaster hubs and rims.

Ok thank you sir. I never really get air born, just wheelies and slides just wanted to know if they would hold up thanks 
Also if you haven't already done so you can just flip the front wheels to widen the front. Its free instead of paying for spacers then you don't have to worry about snapping spacers atleast not on the front.

Thank you sir I'll have to do that today. I wish the rear wheels were that simple. Happen to know te bolt pattern size for stock 02 blaster wheels? I found some sites say 4/100 some that say 4/115

and i think iv seen this befor
Thank you guys I've seen to many people saying they break the stud style spacers I found a set of billeted aluminum ones that look a lot safer for Like 45 bucks new so I'll just get them and save some worry
Yeah, the spacers are stong... but theres an article on here somewhere i think... spacers will wear your front end quicker.... For normal riding they definitely hold up... unless you swipe a big tree I:I
May as well post this found picture again

I'm not putting spacers on the front most definitely lol but a longer axel is outa budget for now
If you are buying new tires and are want to widen out the rear a bit maybe you could get a set of the extended hubs Tusk Extended Rear Wheel Hubs YAMAHA Banshee 350 1987-1988 1991-2006 ATV | eBay . That gets you 3.5 inches wider in the rear and then you're set up to buy a take off set of 9' wheels and 20" tires on the cheap. Get a set with 3x5 off set and turn them around to get almost 6" per size.

i had spacers on the rear with no problems but recently went with a banshee axle, but then again mine is a 2006, so i can use a banshee axle. that's not the case on the 02 and older blasters.
The extended hubs look nice but those plus tires and wheels is a little out of budget for now. I do not get airborne on my bike just slide around a lot. Will the spacers hold up to this? I'm not getting the stud type but the billeted aluminum ones instead
My lad has been using stud spacers with a Banshee axle for over a year now on MX with no breakages.
You should have no problems at all with spacers if you dont jump
