Personal preferance and axle diff clearance really. If your running a tall tire like Panthers you can get away with a wide off set. If your running a shorter tire like the Losi Claws you might not want wider than stock Axial width. Wider is better, it will give you better side hill capability, especially with the higher profile from a taller tire. Something to keep in mind, if you run a lot of weight in the wheels, you put more stress on the knuckles the farther a wheel sticks out. |

10 1/2 is as wide as I would want to go on a comp rig. I am at 10 1/4 now with 5.5" tall Rovers. Truck works good at this width.

I believe that is the 585 offset for AX-10 width.
