Will reversing your wheels to make it wider hurt anything.

Are you talking about flipping your rims, or changing the tread direction of your tires?

I have fliped the wheels on my R and it feels the same as my 440 did when they were fliped.

No it won't wobble. It will just give you more bump steer than normal.

Bump steer-Hits taken at the frt wheels will have leverage against you and try to jerk the handle bars around. You will have less control and steering will be a little harder. A damper will help some but reversed rims = bad handling. I know the width helps but the negatives outweigh the positives in my opinion.
