RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

Hi,
I was wondering where I could find some offset 2.2" truck wheels. I remember HPI used to make some deep dish/offset wheel, which I can't find anymore, but some of their new offerings seem to have some offset. I also read that the duratrax maximum st wheels have some offset. What else is out there? I am looking for the maximum amount of offset. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

All of the RC10t and all variations up to.the t4.1 have the same offset.

a&l monster truck wheels have the most offset they were designed to convert a buggy into a truck and they are super strong. original jrx-t 3 piece wheels have a lot of offset as well. proline monster truck conversion wheels were even wider but the centers sometimes busted out. if you can find them there is the uber rare trinity baja purple chrome wheels my personal favorites

thanks for the suggestions, they seem like they would work, but those wheels look vintage and kind of hard to come by. What other options are there for more current, readily available wheels?

the most current ones would have to be the h.p.i. super star monster truck rims. youre best bet would be ebay but be warned they made 2 styles standard offset and wide offset so make sure you get the right ones. they were universal fit with multiple adapters.

I have some of those Trinity wheels! From memory, a set of RC10 rears, and a set of King Cab fronts.... might have to dig them out and BST them! I love the purple chrome.....

Found them.... lol.... and memory was incorrect.... looks like 10T rears and (possibly) JRXT / LXT rears....

Alex

the ones on the right with the holes are my personal favorites. ihave a few beat up used sets and a nib set. the only down side is they have got to be te heaviest wheels i have ever used. i dont run them anymore but man do they look cool, they look even beter with the new matching low profile mini-spike trinity truck tires i have too!

They are long discontinued. EBay is your best bet

Well, I could put them on eBay if it helped....

Alex

Well, that was pretty crappy..... listed those two pairs of wheels TWICE on eBay..... not one bid.

Guess they're not as rare or wanted as people thought....

Back in the dungeon for them....

Alex

you mean like these

they fit great in the rear but i had to make a special wheel nut

the only problem in the front is that i need an axle that is about 3/4 long. is a 10t front axle that long??

oops i labeled the pictures backwards the reartires pic is actually the front

I recall longer axles by a couple companies back in the day. I thought they were all metric for running tamiya wheels tho. Those front wheels look kinda like traxxas. Rears appear to be proline

If anyone needs offset wheels I have a few pairs of Imex wheels for a few different applications from back when you used a buggy arm on a truck. Must have buy/sell/trade access or I could always list them on eBay if nothing else

just found a conversion axle

crp # 1559 for blackfoot to rc10 conversion
