Default New wheel for my Jerp

I've been looking for a high positive offset wheel but haven't found anything that I liked, so I tried my hand at designing one. I have the file sent off to the 3D printer, hopefully in a day or 2 it will get made for me.

Once I get all of the details worked out, I'll see if duuuuuuude is up to giving it a try. Feel free to offer suggestions/ideas!

That's cool. Pretty much any CAD design you can come up with is available? Depending on the wheel offset you can eliminate the spacer used on the AX10 axles on a GI Joe jeep then...?

Not really sure what you are asking? Any CAD design or 3D model can be printed or converted into a tool path for a CNC turning center. This particular design will use VP hubs so it can be "tuned" for track width. My goal is to use Wraith axles under my Jeep for a more scale appearance but I want to keep the wheels inside of the body as much as possible. This design should be a big help.

I got the first printed wheel yesterday and found a few minor fitment issues with the backside, so I made some changes and I'll get another wheel printed to recheck for clearances.
