|  rpm crawler wheels??? i want to put some rpm crawler wheels on my tlt. my question is what offdet would be the best to get. i told my lhs to get me the wide ones but the order wont go out till monday so i have time to change my mind. i just dont want them to rub in my lower links at all and my regular rpm rims do as do my junfac beadlocks. so any help is appreciated. also i am not running axle wideneers and this is a trail truck and will see no comps. i dont want it to be so wide it looks stupid |

| Im not sure but i dont think the wide and narrow are the offset, they are the width of the wheel it self, the width from the outside of the rim to the outside. So a narrow rim can give you more traction because it pulls the tyre in so it creates more sidewall tread, but it can make the tyre rounded and that will leave you with not very mutch traction at all. |

| The crawler wheels only come in on width. And the offset is variable, I say go with the more offset (wider stance), as ive seem most of the RPM wheels mounted with this offset. Itll give you more stability and like you pointed out, a little more steering. |
