Have a scx10 and I want to widen its stance because the stock maxxis tires are very skinny and prone to flip on off camber situations.

Thanks mike

You can get offset wheel extenders,also lowering COG will help with off camber

I ended up going with the xl proline TSL SS and they are a little bit tall than stock but they are substantially wider than the stock maxxis trepadors
