190mm body on a 200mm car?
Would this look crappy? Does anybody have pics of a 190mm vs 200 mm? Thanks!
The car is a Cen CT-5. It's specs are 196mm... But the body I would like on it is 190mm, but I don't want t looking awkward.
Thanks guys. All help is appreciated!

The tyres will stick out 5mm on either side, will that be a problem for you or not?
Can you not find the body you're after in 200mm, even if it's from another manufacturer?

No. The only body I can find is 190mm... But my car is only 196mm so it should only stick out 3mm on each side... which doesn't seem too bad... I just don't want it looking really out of place.

what the heck kind of car do you have, that its 196? hm, weird. theres was a thread exactly like this maybe a week ago, and everyone said the wheels would pop out a bit, but i dont think its too much of a deal, if you really like the body.

I have a Cen CT-5 which is 196mm... I've got the Ford GT body that it comes with that is 200mm... but I'd like a Dodge Viper GTS body(note: not GTS-R) to paint and look like a real Dodge Viper GTS. But the only one I can find is 190mm...
