A3 wheels

I do have a quick question about M35A3 wheels. I did some searching about the wheels, but couldn't find this particular answer (perhaps because it is an obvious question).

If I put M35A3 wheels on my M35A2, would I have to first do the rear hub flip?

I'm a newbie to the Deuce and have been trying to decipher the tire/wheel combo thing. You mentioned the A3 wheels ( which seem to be available). Did you discover any downside to using the A3's?

They are designed for MPT tires.

Tire selection. You are limited to what you can run on an MPT rim, and the correct tires for that rim (14.5R20) have a poor reputation for safety. Knock on wood I've never had a problem with mine aside from blowing one doing something stupid...... But there have been enough guys here that have had random blowouts with them that it's always on my mind when driving.
