Rear tire alignment
Hello, I own a 2008 Nomad 1600,..........is there any alignment on the rear tire?
I'm asking because I am running the Dark Side and I have some feathering on the right outside edge of the tire! Thanks.

Rear tire alignment
If you have the spacers all installed correctly there is nothing to align when you install the rear wheel. Could it possibly be the tire deflection causing it to touch the swingarm during cornering?
Running lower air pressures can cause that to happen.
