Ok i bought a new douglas centerline rim''for a 85r'' today and the tire i put it on and the tire rubs the right side of my forks really bad.Is the off set on a r different then a x or is the off set on the new rim different than stock. thanx im out 80 bucks for the tire :oops: .

what kind of tire is it? I hope you didn't put that 489 up front :shock:

Why wouldn't you use an AT489 up front? I don't see anything wrong with them for a front tire.

Im not sure why it wouldnt work, and I cant really tell you whether or not the rims are the same. Are forks at the same spot in the triple trees?

[350x'inNY]

Do you have both axle spacers on?? Do you have the axle screwed in all the way?

Took the tire back the rim had a diff off set thanx

Don't use one of those muddin tires on the front of a trike! I still don't get what people are thinking when I see that since those tires weigh a ton and are hidious looking. Get either the stock othus pro V or a front max.

not gonna say anything about tire choice, because it is just that a choice...run whatever tire you like.....as for rubbing the fork....you got problems.....as far as i know(and i am sure someone will tell us if i am wrong) there is no OFFSET on a front rim...either your axle is loose or you are missing a spacer..or the forks are not in the trees correctly!!!

Why not use the 489's....I love them. My brother had one on his R and I think 86250RZ from this site has one too. IMO, they hook up better than most other tires out there.

Its a after market douglas rim and it has a off set of a ich to the right
