Status: offline 		I just got my set of Nova 1" wheel extensions. They look very tough and mount real easy. The stance is incredable and practicly impossible to flip over. Only complaint is you have more wobble to the wheels or it just seems to be more because of the extra width but its not bad. My other savage has 1/2" offset wheels so even that one is wide. The FLM savage is super wide.

WOW I never realized how the dirt shows up in pictures. It looks way dirtier than it really is. Now I have to go clean it.

The amount of stress your putting them through is just insane, let us know how durable it really is in a couple of weeks.

Status: offline 		I was thinking the same as the above poster said. Theorettically it should put more stress on the bearings and stube axles but I can't judge a book by its cover.

Well you may be right but the XL has the same concept. They are not very tight either but yes I will keep everyone posted. Also there are alot of truggies that use extenders and they are pretty much bulletproof. Only time will tell.
