Whether you can mix and match from other Tamiya cars I'm sorry I don't know the answer to that. A wider offset wheel or a wider hex on the rear of a FWD makes no practical difference in my own experience. For a laugh I did once run a set of TL01B (Buggy) rear arms on an M03 with F1 rear wheels for maximum width and it looked very odd but still went round a track much the same.
Yeah all good. When the other person suggested a wider arm i was kinda being sarcastic in asking how lol.
Anyhow i was unsure if widening the rear of the car would free that end up a little ?
