ten factory?

 

On the rears yes.

 

Ok let be try to explain this over internet. Grap a pencil by the eraser in between thumb and index finger. Take other hand and push up and down close to eraser. Now move out 1.5 inches and its easier to move right. Leverage.. same reason a prybar works for moving heavy objects and pulling nails. The reason correct offset wheels don't do as much is because the leverage point is still in stock location. Their will be more with wider/less backspace wheel but not as bad as a spacer/adapter

 

I would be interested in their explanation of how the leverage would be different.

 

Well go to discount tire or les schwab tire center and ask them to install some and find out answer from them too. Ohh yeah and tire factory said same thing and my brother is friends with local owner of store and he normally does stuff for us that he won't do for others. Oh did I mention said owner is a pro rock racer and a buggy builder. So yeah I go with the engineers and experts over internet "gurus" no disrespect meant to anyone but don't try to change my opinion as I was just offering a point of view

 

Another way I could explain it would be to say put a 10lbs weight on your out stretched arm at elbow. Now move it out to your hand. Is it harder to hold?

 

Not sure I follow, a spacer and factory wheel and a wheel with a 4.5" bs would have the tire in the same place in space equal distance from the hub and the ball joints. The weight would still be hanging out there in the same place.

 

No. The mounted point is cantilevered out 1.5" more. If I was in person I could draw it up the way the engineers did but it does make a lot of since when you can finally see what I mean. I think smashboogie or one of the other sponsers agrees on this statement

 

I am no engineer so I will take your word for it until I can prove it otherwise.
Thanks for giving me a good day!

 

I always value your opinion and always look forword towards your responses. Thank you
