Im considering purchasing a Wheely King to make into a crawler and was wondering if Moab 2.2's fit directly on the stock wheels? And do the stock tires come pre glued?
Thanks

Yes on the tires fitting is good news
Yes on pre-glued isn't good news, but there alot of methods of un-gluing tires, like boiling them.
Thanks

A lot of people like the MOABS on narrowed rims. Might be a thought.

The tires on my buddies' WK were barely glued on. Just run it for a while and the glue seems to break down, making it easier to get the tires off. The wheels themselves are pretty nice, good hex area, but definitely need to be narrowed a bit for moabs.

Thanks, If I get the 4x4 WK ill try a heatgun to remove the tires, and if that doesn't work ill try the oven.

Wow, my thread is back! lol
I will keep that in mind if I ever need to un-glue any tires.
I just decided to go with some Axial bead locks. They work great with my Moab 2.2's and I didn't have to mess with un-gluing the stock tires "thumbsup"
My crawler is now finished, I just need to get some pics posted.....
