Id like to gain an inch on both sides of my br to get around 2" wider overall
Anyone done it? What offset do i need?
If anyone has pics of their critter setup like this please post up pics!

I put +2 spacers on my SX (4" total) and hated it. They lasted less than an hour. The spacers made it hard to turn. The same thing will apply to your BR but that's my opinion.

Thanks for the input, im hoping the 2" would be the best of both worlds

Even a 2" wider stance will effect its turning ability. Just saying!!

Yup, im sure it will require a different riding approach but im not concerned
So has anyone done this? What offset rims do i need?

Unless you're planning on beating it to death & jumping it, I'd go with the 1& 1/2 inch spacers the frequently come up on Ebay, I got mine for less than 60 clams shipped, but that was 2 years ago.
And honestly, I don't feel any difference from stock & it just looks way cooler
