Greetings to all members
Recently i bought a pair of the Otec turbine wheels (wide version for 240 tyres) and i fitted them with Avon Chrome tyres,130 front and 240 rear.
The rear tyre was touching the left side of the swingarm very slightly and i used the 3.2mm washer/spacer which was placed originally on the right side of the wheel axle,to the left side of the wheel,inside the wheel,so it moved the wheel 3mm to the right.
Not it is not touching but it is very close the tyre to the swing arm.
Has anybody else experienced such a thing?
Otec is selling these wheels as direct replacement and there are not any fitting instructions or recommendations.
On the other hand,i know that the 240 tyres fits nicely on the original swing arms without problems.
Thanks in advance.
 
Did you remove the plastic driveshaft cover? It has to be removed to fit the larger wheel/tire combo which lets the tire sit very close to the shaft.
