I recently widened my 2003 Blaster.

As the title states I recently widened my Blaster. To me it doesn't look that much wider, but I feel a huge difference in the stability of it. I noticed that when I try to ride two wheels on one side my rear wheel will slide a little and rip up the grass a little, but it's now a bit more resistant to pop up on one side. I can't wait to go +6 inches wider than stock. I really like to slide and before I widened my Blaster, my rear tires would rub on the heel guards and cause the quad to pop up to one side. Needless to say I no longer have any problems.

okay, good to know. also, i think you were looking for the word stability instead of tippability lol

I couldn't really think of a word besides tippy. So I just made one up. Might end up in the dictionary one day.

So how wide is it now?

I believe somewhere around 44". I didn't have anyone to hold one end of the tape measure, so i'm not quite sure. I widened the rear by 3", the front by maybe 4" from flipping my banshee rims. The front is stll ever so slightly narrower than the rear, but not by much.
