My Warpspeed chassis above has 200mm arms/cvd's on it, as does the chassis under my Pantera. The HPI Mustang and the Parma bodies will probably not work on a 200mm chassis with the proper offset wheels but the HPI Camaro and 'Cuda are both actually 210 at the rear and a FULL 200 (plus) at the front and the 200mm chassis with VTA wheels and tires falls under it and looks GREAT with the filled wheelwells.

Keep in mind the HPI bodies are sold as part of their nitro 1/10 kits which are, I believe, 200mm.
That's correct. I believe the bodies that are a problem are the Mustangs and possibly the new HPI 69 Camaro. The Cuda and 68 Camaro were never a problem being wide enough for just about any 200mm chassis.
