I have a YM186D and have been working with member California on flipping the rear wheels so the dish is outboard (wider wheel stance) and he suggested I submit a new thread in case it might help other members. I am just trying this out...not an expert.
I believe that I need to remove the hubs and associated hardware (set screws and through hole pins) to even get the tires (and rims) off the hubs. Once I do that, I plan to reinstall the hubs and mount the flipped wheels with rims to the outside of the hubs. See pictures.
"Bolts" removed from hub. The rims are installed on the INSIDE face of the hub. Once I get the hubs off the rims, I plan to mount them more traditionally on the outside.
Inside view....I will probably have to remove all the hardware to get the hub off the rim. Plan to paint these white as this color will be on the outside once flipped.
Inside view of the other hub before removing any bolts.
Outside view of the other hub before removing any bolts.
If anyone has any insights that I am on the right track, let me know!
Thank you,
