RE: Help With ABS
I just cut mine to the same width the the wheel, the file the edges just a little bit to round them (yeah, it makes it look more like a tire, but I really do it because it keeps the ABS from snagging on things when its sliding)
You can get a straight cut by hand, if you are careful, or you can use a bandsaw to make perfect cuts.

RE: Help With ABS
well the abs is as close as i can get it to the width of the rim, do you think it will be ok if i made the abs skinnier it would still slide around
