Wheel Base


Is it better to have a 9 or 10 inch wheel base? Does it really matter?

are you talking about power wheels? because the wheelbase is the distance between the front and rear tires

Wider the better in the back. No more than 9 inch in the front.

Lol You know what i mean jazz. And most people will say 10 or 10.5 in back... What do you have? It is about the proper tire am i right?

And i personally would rather have an 8 inch rim in front, but my wheels are only in 9's (and recently 10.5).

I see you are sporting the 10.5 and even 11 in the back! And 10's in front? How are you not rubbing? I have a little rub on the inside at full turn.
