What kind of rig do you have that you are trying to widen it? The most of us are trying to get our trucks narrower. Especially in the rear.

this is my rig and you can see why. just like the timberwolf i have to use wheel wideners b/c i used the hpi jeep body which is 1/8th scale.i built a rock crawler not a mall crawler so yes i want my tires out side the rig not tucked under like im running 31'' tall tires on stock axles im not trying to be a @#$% just trying to get the point across that yes it is a scaler of a rock rig not a daily driver     just like in real rock crawlin if you want to play with the big boys you go full width axles.  | |

Nice looking tuber man  Another option you might consider would be swapping out the axial axles for wheely kings, they're nice and wide with any wheel not made with berg offset. |

I Narrowed some Berg wheels, they are negative offset now. They help skinny up the tire making it a tad taller and even with 50* of steering, tires still don't hit links or shocks on my Bully rig. I only did the fronts (wanted a flater patch of traction for the rears.) but the rears could be done in no time. They are super stout. |

23mm is nearly an inch. I'm betting it'll end up narrower than it is now. |

 There used to be a post between #14 & #15 with a diagram showing the different offsets available with the wheels your getting. At best they offer 23mm more offset over stock. | |
