just an idea mate, this is my old kit, which has 3" flexis with 5" boss adjustable shocks, worked really well. i would say run a 3" and put 15mm packers up front.

mine did this at about 80 km, could hardly hold on too the wheel. put a new set of tyres on and it went away. try swapping around your tyres and see if it helps.

i went cheapest alloy one i could get and now runs a fair bit cooler than the standard one (standard one was in pretty bad condition). have had it in for only about 3 months but very happy so far.

got mine through purplebus off here. cheaper than ebay and very helpful too.
