No, they're all 6-inch plaction. The point I was making is that you don't "lose" maneuverability by putting all of your wheels on the outside. The two center wheels are lowered 1/8 of an inch (I think it's an 1/8, Chris can correct me if I'm off). I was basically just pointing out how the traditional style of 6/8 wheel skids, all wheels in line with each other and middle wheel dropped, works really well and has no issues with maneuverability when built well.
