yea you can. 888 are one of the most common forks that are on the stinky's both 170mm and 200mm. It will raise the bb and wheelbase a tiny bit but nuthin that you will really notice on the ride. ull be fine

oooo, sorry, brain fart on my part. you're right, dropoff's they were. i guess i've seen so many with 888's it all became a blur. perhaps this is a ? for kona, but i think it's ok...

do you think it would be best to take a chance and put 200mm on or play it safe and go with 170mm 888's

40's are nice indeed,but he's not asking about a 40,only a 888 wil do fine on a stinky.
