widening the rear end of a Ta06

[Dojo Dave 889]

I'm trying to fit a Ta06 with a hot rod body but the wheels and or tyres aren't filling the rear end so if I put dark wheels on it it looks like there is no chassis under it.... any thoughts

You will have to play with high offset wheels, and/or wider hexes and as a last resort TG10 axles. I would look at HPI's etc offerings.

Stick a ruler against the outside of your current touring car wheels (assuming you know the offset, usually 0 to +2) and have a look at what is available in the extra offset you need.

You can use also whele spacer wideners,they are existing in different dimensions.

As an example

How much extra width do you need?

There are alot of nice chrome wheel sets (pefect for a hotrod) on ebay atm, some as much as +6mm and +8mm offset, thats per side, so a possible 12-16mm extra width overall. If you need any more than thats your better off changing to a 200mm width chassis to start with instead of a 185mm one.
