2.0 needs 0
1.0 needs 1/2 or hub extensions.

Running either one with the wrong offset will kill handling. Running too narrow will mean an unstable truck. Running too wide will result in reduced steering, and just generally sluggish handling. There is a reason that these trucks are the width that they are. Theres lots of engineering put into it. Run it how it's meant to be run.
