I know that you can widen them can you widen one side at a time or do you make the whole axle longer at once im just thinking. ???

I don't know what the official size is when you haev them sucked all the way in.. But I know to answer one of your first questions, Yes, you can widen just one side and not the other. How its done is there's spacers (big bushings) 2 of them. To make it +1 you place hub on first... then the 2 spacers and then the axle nut.
 to make it +2 , you put the 1" spacer on first, then the hub and then the other spacer then the axle nut on..
and to extend it fully, you put both bushings on first, and then the hub and then the axle nut. :thumbs:

Thanks Krandall. Great explanation. I had actually wondered how they are adjustable. I just assumed it was done with spacers. :thumbs:

they come in different arrangements/sizes, from narrower to wider.
depending on the size, the adjustments will be limited

The RPM/Durablue/LSR use spacers. The spacers not in use go on the outer side of the wheel.
