Thanks! I agree, I’m digging the black and gold too.

AVguy, Can you provide part # for the Bandito tires you have on the JC Racing wheels? I'm also interested to see how your Factory Works 1/4" hexes fit the stock 1/4" axle. It's noted as a tight fit once you get the 12mm hex on. Once hex installed, I'm not sure if it allows for easy swappi...

I dig it ! Really, very well done.

Thanks!

Sorry I haven’t checked back for a while. The hex adapters came in over the weekend. Here are some pics with the white wheels. I think the black ones look better. These are just too bright. The only thing left is painting the body but I just don’t have a good place to set up to paint yet. Once I get...

My JC Racing wheels came in today. Still waiting for the hex adapters to put on the other wheels.

So, I put the tires and wheels together the correct way and they work great. I also ordered the Traxxas 7171 and J concepts mono wheels with the Duratrax Bandito tires. I just wish I could find some shorter black wires to connect the gyro. The orange, yellow and brown wires are killing me. I used t...

Thanks I will! Once I get the new wheels I’ll post some more.

With an IWISS Crimping tool and universal servo connector kit from Amazon every wire can be cut to any custom length I saw the kits you are talking about but I’m probably not going to use any of that stuff again. I was just hoping to find some short wires in black. Who knows, maybe my OCD will get ...

Are there any tires that will work with the old three piece wheels without glueing? You need to use the inner plastic ring on the 3 piece wheels to clamp the tire beads. The whole purpose of the 3 piece wheels is to secure the tires without glue, but you need to use all 3 pieces to do that. If you ...

You can't use 2.2 tires on then Jconcepts hazard wheels those are smaller wheels. Right. The link was for the J Concepts mono front wheels and the traxxas 7171 for the rears with the hex adapters. I had ordered J Concepts hazard tires for use with my old three piece wheels. I didn’t want to glue th...

I’m ordering the J concepts and the traxxas wheels with the hex adapter on eBay. Can I use any 2.2” 1/10 buggy tires on these wheels? I searched on eBay and found tires from duratrax, pro line and Schumacher. Just to be clear, the wheels from the link. Yes, they are standard 2.2 buggy tires. Severa...

Right now I can only find the Hazard rear wheels in black and front wheels in white. Rest is backordered. I think I’ll get a set in black and white since I have the wheels.
