HPI has this wider "low profile" wheel, the LP, with 29, 32 and 35mm width.
I'd like to get one of those but wonder if they'd fit, at least the LP29, that one has 3mm offset.

I'm hoping I can get away with an LP29 3mm-offset in the front and an LP32 6mm-offset in the rear

does anybody have a clue?

thanks
I think the answer will depend on which body you use and how high you mount the body. Too much offset and you'll get rubbing.

Got the body mounted today. I need to get some different wheels with more offset for the rear. Right now the rear is using thicker hexes but it doesn't look exactly correct because this car is supposed to use higher offset wheels on the rear.
