RC10 wheel bearing help

Post by nvxwax »

Ok i have some alloy wheels to mount on the front of an RC10, The axle size is 3/16, The wheel hole is 7/16. Anybody know were to get 3/16 X 7/16 Flanged bearings or some type of spacer to use 3/16 X 5/16 bearings.

Any help would be appreciated, Thanks

are you sure they are not 11mm? 7/16" is a very odd bearing size.

either way, you could probably get a spacer that would fit in the wheel to adapt from 11mm to 5/16 and use standard associated flanged bearings. Probably HPI adapters would work, but I dunno what exactly is in their kit.
