Default Wheel width?

So I bought a RR10 and curious if widening the wheel base has any benefit? Pros and cons? If so just the front ? back or Both? Also would this help with roll over at speeds?I've custom cut a 66 Ford F100 body to fit and the front wheels rub the wheel wells on the body just a little bit with the stock Walker Evens wheels on it. I've replace the stock wheels with the Pro-line Fault line wheels and the back spacing was about 3/8" difference making it wider . I have it taken apart right now waiting on the Vanquish stage 1 kit to come in and install it before I put it all back together to see if that has solved the rubbing issue. If there is still rubbing I was thinking about installing SLW wheel hubs to widen the wheel base enough to clear. Once the parts come in and I get her all back together I'll post picks.
