I bet the parmas are off-set a little more to clear the shock end but I don't have a pair to mount up and check.
Andrew,

I cut down the inside of the rear foam tire (and wheels) on my tire truer to give the necessary clearance to the shock end. Usually a flat file will handle it nicely.

For more steering, consider taking a bit off the inside of the front tires too.

If you are trying to get under the 190mm width for a regional/national/major race, you might have to file some foam off the outside wall.
