I was thinking about doing up a DS build with a HPI body, just wondering if you came up with a way to get the front wheels flush with the outside of the body?

If you convert to run touring car tires couldn't you just use one of the wider wheel hexes to push the front wheels out?

Most of the newer HPI wheels come in different offsets. For the front try a different offset to bring the wheel out.

In the first pic you posted, the black wheels that are on that car, does anyone know who made them? I have a set on one of my pan cars that has two sets of centers. I'd like to know how many diff sets of centers were available for these wheels as well. Car is looking great!
