Non-Colinear wheels

Wheels not in a line

Our team is using an 8WD with the two center wheels on each side dropped
Because of size constraints we are considering not putting the wheels in a line

from the top, it will end up looking like this

Front
-|----|-
|------|
|------|
--|--|--
Back

The vertical lines are our wheels and the dashes are how the spacing works

I've never seen a drivetrain like this
Does anyone know if any problems, with turning or otherwise, would arise from not having all four wheels in a line?

I can upload the CAD, or a better drawing if further clarification is needed

Thanks
