Looking to fit a 5 x 17 on a Paralever K75
« on: October 07, 2016, 12:24:54 AM »
     Looking to fit a 5 x 17 on a Paralever K75. The offset on my stocker is about maybe 10mm off center to the right from behind. I assume this why everyone says they pull to the right. I am in the middle of the conversion and looking for wheel/tire options. Ideally 5 x 17 without rotor mounts. If anyone has input I'd appreciate it.    Thanks Tony

For what it's worth all Bricks tracks are offset, some track true and some seem to pull to one side.

Search the site for "K1200 wheels".  There are many posts about this subject.  You can do it but you'll have to modify the centre stand and shim to get more offset to accommodate wider tires.
