I like them a lot they are a little heavy but I like that because I am more of a duner than drag racer. I can also pound on them and they wont go flat where my buddies have light weight wheels and tires and they tend to get a lot of flats.

I run the same wheels and tires on my 06 R and no matter how tight I crank the lug nuts down, everytime I go to the dunes the lugs come loose. I tightend them with the flat side of the nut to the wheel with a half inch drive break over and they still came loose. Just about everyone that runs a C series wheel that I've talked to has had a problem so just make sure you check your lug nuts frequently.

you shouldnt be having problems with the lug nuts. what wheels do you have? are you using the stock lugnuts?
sandshots
Oct 22 2007, 03:44 PM
i just saw that u run the c wheels also. are you using the tapered end of the lug nut in first?

Yep, tapered end goes in. I've never had a lug nut come loose on my c-series.

IMSROLL450R
Oct 24 2007, 08:35 AM
I was told when I bought the C series to turn the lug nuts around and run the flat side in. Ive had them on both ways and they still come loose but I think that the first time it happened it may have messed up the hole and kept them from ever staying tight. The wheels do look awesome I think but Im getting rid of them and getting something else regardless. They are heavier than a lot of other wheels also.

Definitely a better set up! When I was running the 20x10x10 haulers I would get beat by my buddies 700 raptor by a bout 1.5 lengths, but now I completely dust his A$$ (might be the new cam and piston I dont know

) Also a whole lot smoother ride threw the whoops. I wanna try the Brats then I'll decide if theyre keepers, but for now they work great!

It is really too much paddle for my motor at this time. But I plan on getting a new piston and head work. So hopefully when all is said and done I will have the right setup.

so sorry sucio! lost track of this thread!
yes my bike is majorly dropped, at that point i had the durablue lowering kit front and rear, the rear being as low as the link would allow.
right now i got some marvin shaws up front which made it even lower, now what to do with the rear?
