Reply #3 - 08/22/11 at 07:07:53 great, but a 550? doesn't that have a 17" wheel? You'll have to put a low profile tire on. the drive and brake hub should slip right in. Keep the OD to a little over 25" if you can.

Reply #5 - 08/22/11 at 09:16:55 Cool, that's what I got. The Dunlop D401 rear tire has very thick tread. Most likely, it was actually a GS450. To fit the front disk, you need to cut the OD down to match the savage and fiddle with the spacers.
