This is the WCE version (not the EVO) and I am using the stock brake pads. I was thinking of getting the APP pads or the K-Factory brake pads, which should help this situation unless anyone has some other suggestion.
Do this, then re-adjust your brakes and i bet everything will be ok !
RRR rocks

Are you refering to the APP pads? I was thinking about getting a set to try or the K factory brake pads.

Honestly, I really wouldn't think there is any advantage for one over the other. It's really just down to which manufacturers wheels/tires you choose. If certain company only has 2mm offset tires and no other option so you'll just have to run that and standard axle. Vice versa.
For me, GQ 0mm offset is a lot easier to get then their 2mm offset, therefore I run the 2mm offset axle so I can run the 0 offset wheels.

Thanks for the input. I guess I'll stick with the current setting I'm running then
