Think these will fit?

I don’t have an angle grinder, but I do have a tiny hand file! I filed down that spot, put the wheel on, and it was rubbing in a different spot. Ground more off, wheel rubbed more. This cycle repeated about 19 times until I gave up and ordered spacers. The wheels fit with the spacers but discount tire won’t touch anything with floating spacers so I’m stuck until the rear calipers and rotors I re-ordered arrive. I’m a little relieved though that I won’t have to rely on the spacers, the lack of lug thread engagement was a little scary.

It's almost like the world is telling you that maybe you should buy wheels made for the actual vehicle on which you are going to mount them.

Floating spacers are dangerous AF. Wheel adapters are…. Better.

The important question is what are the two motorcycles in the picture? They appear interesting

Haha… KTM 50SX and Kawasaki KX 65 for my boys. Still saving for that 2018+ 300 XC for me.

I highly recommend the 2023+ XC or the 2024+ XCW (depending on your riding style and terrain). Game changers. Avoid the first couple years of TBI if you must go that way but really the new chassis and suspension are worth it on the new models.

After another debacle of getting the correct caliper mounts for the rears, I finally got the wheels/tires on new “rig” haha.

I’m happy so far, I just need to get the center cap situation figured out.

How do the brakes feel?

I have not noticed any difference in the brakes yet. I'm driving to northern Arizona later this month, the way home will include a lot of downhill. I will be on the lookout for brake fade and let you guys know.

The LR4 does the uphill part of grades nicely. Plenty of high revving torque. My first grade in the LR4 was down to Laughlin and the Colorado river. It was pretty fun to drive over the river. I used Sport mode and 4th gear went a long ways to keep speed down. I didn't need to use the brakes at all so if you hit fade then gear down in Sport mode.

Thanks for the tip @powershift! Are you talking about the river crossing over the Hoover Dam or somewhere else?
