Yes they are wider in terms of cogs, but the inboard side is dished in so it fits on a road 8-10speed hub. look at pics of any 11sp cassette. You can put a 11sp mtb cassette on a 8-10sp road hub as well, just the 34t sprocket of the HG800 is as small as it can can go and still fit. A 11sp cassette smaller than 34t will not fit.
[edit] heres a pic that shows the dishing. If you use it on a 11sp road hub, then you nee to add a shim as well (1.85mm I believe).
