No, for todays premounts, that most people are running these days, the wider arms are perfect width. With the IFS;

Gravity/Ride premounts are 189mm wide
Volante fronts are 185mm wide.
CRC fronts are about 188mm wide.
And Shimizu is gone so you wont be worrying about that combo soon....

F1's run better with around 190mm width in the rear so you want the fronts width to come close to that.
