| Need inexpensive 2.2 Landy or military style wheel
I'm looking for a less expensive 2.2 Landy or military look wheel for my Jeep project. I know RC4WD makes some AL Landy wheels but at $110, they are a bit out of my budget. Their beadlock wagon wheels are cool but they are pin mount and I need hex. Ideas? They are going on this... Wild Willy's big brother |

I recently got a set of RC4WD steelies, and they have a hex mount.

Yes, they are 1.5's. I figured that all the steelies would use the same hub. Hmmm.

why do they have to be hex instead of pin? The hex is going to mount on a pin so why not just the wheel?

I though all the steelies were pin mount too. Both 1.9 sets Ive had were, and just figured they all were. I wonder if the aluminum mount adapter that bolts to the back can be interchanged between the different sizes of wheels?

The 1.5s were the first ones they changed to hex mount since thats what most people wanted. I just got word from them that they will soon be offering the hex as an option for the 2.2s.

If you are interested, I can post some pics on how I modded some Tamiya HummV wheels into a 2.2 wheel. I have them on my 6x6 running narrowed Flat Irons.
