Dafni, thx for input. Your opinion is my opinion until other opinions come this way since I've never even driven a 1/8 truggy.

My roller came with wide offset hex adapters to compensate for HPI rims that have no offset in them. They're rather plain, unsightly rims. Wanted a bit more "bling". I am extending the chassis by 10mm. Do you think this extra length would invite some extra offset? I don't want to fork out the dough for more wheel adapters. thx.
