In my extremely limited time driving my Yeti I'm glad I bought the wide. As easily as it flips over while turning on high traction surfaces, it needs all the width it can get.

u can use same hub size front rear. narrow the hub size in the rear -> less stress an the axle on yeti rolls.  option to use still wider hub in the rear to gain wider track (my setup right now 22mm rear 14mm front) for better stability on gras.  |

I debated and went with the stock width. The centered pumpkin works well, and as I'm not speeding with it and the extra width would make me use wider front hubs.... Just me.  Hang up and Drive Last edited by mikemcE; 03-06-2017 at 06:07 PM. |

If you do the wide in the rear, should it be done up front as well?

Just don't use offset on your wheels that push the wheel outboard (negative offset) or you'll end up with a collection of bent axle shafts. Just my 2 cents worth, Bob |

So far no issues even in rolls that breaks SSD HD rods in the trailing arm. But I mentioned that possible my pin mounted hubs are the differenz to the others who have bend axle issues. Still new to this just a thought. sent by magic_yeti |
