Default How to pick wheel width and track width, Help please

I have searched, read, never can get the details.

What is the ideal Wheel width and track width to run on Front of Berg?

currently have 9.7 TW on front, with Tire outside width at 10.5
Tires hit links and shocks so steering sucks


thanks for your help

You can try narrowing the wheels from the inside, cut or sand off the inner lip to the next inner lip, maybe 1/4 inch off inside of wheel. Use the new lip to glue your bead to. Hope this helps.
