Help! takes a second

na, my wheel cant be machined to fix it. unless i got the base of each sprocket stud machined down, then used washers in addition to the nuts to secure the sprocket. pretty sure that would be more than an hour, probably about 200bucks total plus shipping... kinda a last resort but thanks. i could get my stock wheel widened 2.5 inches and increase the diameter a inch for 350, and then my wheels would match....

im trying to line up my sprockets and wheels. my rear wheel needs to go to the left about 1/4-3/8 of an inch......but at the same time, my sprocket needs to go to the right about 1/4-3/8 of a inch as well.

that would make the sprockets perfectly in line, AND the rear perfectly in line with the front. i can easily move the wheel to the left, but that throws the sprocket off by even more.

i could get a custom offset rear sprocket made for about 175, but then i'd need to spend 175 each time i changed ratios-fuck that.

easy fix-different rear wheel, one with the sprocket closer to the edge of the rim. i dont have time to get to the dealer with a tape measure, so i was asking you guys/girls to help me out.
