i just put on a pair of the, 1/12 hubs with the 0 offset rims. i could of got the eight -t 2.0 but i wanted , something a bit more challegeing to drive lol.
1/2 inch hubs and zero offset wheels will handle exactly the same as running 1/2 offset wheels. No difference in width or how the suspension works.

Now if you run a longer A-arm like the 2.0 truck does you will change how the suspension works(you will have a wider hinge point) and in turn change how the truck handles greatly. Biggest benefits of this are improved rough track handling/bump handling and greater stability.
