on those universals shown above it says 0mm offset does that mean that you wouldnt have to run spacers to run 0mm offset wheels?

This is off the shopping.rcmodel.com.hk site

I used to have 3 Racing Universal for my V1RR. The rear one lasted for very long time, but the front ones were bent after the first run. I am quite sure that I didn't bash my car into the wall fierecely, but it just bent after a while.

I had the same experience with the 3 racing universals in the kyosho. Two different sets warped first run out.

I wouldn't consider GPM as one of the top line manufacturers. I'm sure Manticore will agree.
