I think it was posted in a single thread in here already, just read through it and you will see it

Fronts
2 X 3/16 x5/16 flanged bearings.
then you will need a couple washers 3/16 inside diameter, or a couple rubber o rings, or a 3rd non flanged 3/16 x5/16 bearing. The 3rd bearing will probably make your wheel stick out a couple mm. the spacer of your choice should go on the inside, but that is pretty self explanatory.

Rears
On the inside use the hex adapter.
On the outside use a 5/32x5/16 unflanged bearing.

Hope this helps

I did as above but used bronze bushes on the rear and as spacers on the front, they were left overs from my Astutes, not sure on size.

I was trying things last night and I found that the flanged bushings for the front work great for the rear rims. It plugs in and has a nice flange surface for the nut to tighten up on. Only problem is that I only have one of them.

Please help again!

I got myself some 3/16 x 5/16 bearings which now fit the wheels fine, but they are too small internally to go over my axles! What the hell am I doing?

You bought the bearings for pan car axels-

It also looks like you have the loha's spacer infront of the center it should be mounted behind the center

I like the wheels with the deep dish look, it makes no difference to the fitting.

Are these the bearings I need?

Getting ready for my next shelfer build. I had my Lohas wheel centers annodized blue.

Those look very nice, I was toying with the idea of doing the same with a set of the hurricanes if he remakes them in the future- great blue!

Wow they look great, I've got a Tekin that they would be killer on

That blue is awesome. Now I'm inspired to build an entire car around them.

Yup, those blue centres look the business! That's why I purchased my silver set to keep my options open.

Thanks guys, this will be for my soon-to-start B3 Factory Team build. I sent a blue FT motor plate for the color match.

Here are the other parts that went in at the same time (btw my guy will strip the old anno for you so there's little or no prep work required on your part):



My next anno runs will be in purple and then green.

once again, that is a really really nice blue!
