Good to hear that the extra width on the wide rears is offset inside. That's exactly what I was wondering about, wanted to make sure the tire would clear the body. Definitely would like to try some when they are available.
The majority of them were used by street bashers. The inward offset is cool and works great. They're also directional in design, with arrows on the sidewalls.
A cool testimonial by a racer in Las Vegas "Mauimax"-Billy Thomson can be found about 3/4 down the
Testimonials web page here
He talks about racing and winning with them on a wet and dusty track. Good read..
