I'll try these first and if I don't like them I'll try some other sizes?
Am I correct is saying the larger the size the further out it pushes the wheels (Wider Wheelbase). Same holds true for the other way? 5mm would be a narrower wheelbase?
Yes, pulling the wheels off and the Hex sticking in the wheel is the worst, and 95% of the time when that happens you end up losing the pin also so the clamping hexes just make life so much easier
I never played around with trying different widths because for me personally, I doubt I would ever notice something like 1mm different width. Heck, I could probably run 5mm on one side and 8mm on the other and never notice
