Default Fitting XR Wheels

So I have bought a set of MotoWorx Aluminum wheels for my XR and decided to give the stock XR wheels to the wraith. Problem is they rub the steering linkage on the inside of the wheel. I tried shaving the wheel down a smudge but with the way I have my linkage on one side it's not going to work. I've been looking into the Junfac wideners but I think an extra 1/2 inch on each side is a bit much I only need a few mm to fit the xr wheels.

I found these and they look like they would work. Anyone used them or see any reason they wouldn't work. They add 3mm to each side over the stock hex hubs. Price can't be beat either. I know the Topcad isn't top shelf equip but these are pretty simple.

Should work? You couldn't just trim the steering arm a little?

I did the Vanquish SLW hub mod to my XR10 wheels that I use on my wraith. I use to use junfac wheel wideners to make them work but they where kind of sloppy.

The Topcad hexes have reports of loose fitting. HPI makes hexes in various widths,try searching Fleabay.
