rear fender question
05/20/15 at 12:08:14
 
Im contemplating bobbing my savage, but how wide of a rear fender should I use? Im running a 140/90 r15 rear tire... would a 5 3/4" fender fit? Or should I go with a 6 inch?  Both are the same price.

The question should be 'can you align a 5.75" fender with a 5.5" tire?'

Yes it can be done, but you gotta give yourself some weasel room.

of course it'll look fine if you can keep everyone a mile away.   Cool

in other words, if one side lines up and the doesn't, you're only 1/8" off but it'll look sh!tty.
