Sorry this is a basic question, im still a newbie!....

Cheers

The rims i have on my 2wd have slim cut staggers , and as its a 4wd front rim ( the car is a xray xb4 , but 2wd ) i cut the rims to fit them , but for my other xb4 i have some front rims normal width and some cut , fitted with 2wd spikes ...
