Yes the offset on them is big they add a fair bit off width, you can just make out on the pic the wheel hex sits out further than the inner wheel edge .

Much effect on the steering? Looking at my GK I think it's going to be a bit tippy, so am thinking about either extending the hubs or grabbing a set of these.
