|
|
i installed another set of wheels on daughter cadet, and i left the small hubs on axle, and the offset is different so rear widht is 1 " shorter..
Now axle Stiffeness is unchange since hubs did not go inwards, but im 1" shorter, how will it affect handling VS older wheels and pushing rear hubs .5" each side. |

Will have the same affect as stiffening the axle, just not as much as if you were to actually narrow the rear track width.
Will give the kart a bit more "dig" and more rear side bite. _________________ T.J. Koyen
