11" front 10 3/4" rear with 1" SLW wheels 475 front hubs and 600 rear. I am also running Losi wheel hexes which are a little narrower than the Axials maybe like 1/10"- 1/8". Hope this helps |

Is there a downside / upside of running wide in the front and narrow in the rear? By that I mean like 11 1/2" front and 10" rear? |

Upside: Clearance on the rear when coming through gates and turning I run my trucks a bit narrower in the rear....but the difference is never more than 1/2". One other thing.....a wider truck is technically also longer in certain situations and can be helpful. Of course, there are those situations where it is a hindrance.

I'm going for as narrow as I can get with a 1 1/4" SLW wheels a personal choice for the tires I run. At the front to start with, I'm at 10 3/4" front 10 1/2" rear. But I'm just building my first XR, so it could get wider when it gets some run time. Seems lots of people are running them much wider. I'd like to understand why? So I'll be experimenting. . Crawler Design Works makes 1/8" and 1/16" wheel spacers for VP wheels so you can basically go anywhere you want to. |
