Thumbs up fix that broken stock wheel

ok guys im sure u all have broken a hex in youre stock wheel i did but i found that this little trick works great even if you wanna reinforce ur wheels its great
take the same 1/2 tubing u are using to xtend the chassis use a dremmle to sand down the inside of the tubing to fit around the wheel hex on the stock wheel then cut it at 8mm and slide it over the wheel hex fixed and reinforced ...
i broke two wheels with my 2.2s and i did this to all 4 no problems so far seems to be great it saves the breakage

That's a great idea. A lot better than mine. I just used a small hose clamp and tightened it around the broken hex. I like the tubing fix better though, I'll try it tonight.
