I hear ya, I prefer the wagon wheel myself. haha This was for someone else. But I posted it because of the tire. It's challenging to do tires, but mostly just figuring out the pattern. Interestingly enough that is a 1/25th scale semi dually wheel (22.5") and a Mud Grappler tire (35").

Ok 2mm for the right side measurement, but the left side should be more like 6mm. Thanks!

Thanks! oh I just thought, what offset for this? Rather than try to reference stock rim offset, just assume a .06" plate centered on the rim. How much offset from there to the face of the 7mm hex hub on the axle?

On the tractor wheels I made the face of the hex would be about 8mm from the outer edge of the wheel. That kept it as narrow as possible without scrubbing to bad at full turn.

Here is the rim only. There will be a second part that glues on with the hex part and offset.  |

oops I missed the edit. I will narrow the rim 1mm, push the face back 3mm, and see about adding the hex hub. |

I would personally like to see something along these lines for a wheel.

Those might work for a losi axle based rig & 1/25 or 1/24 body... I like to run sumo axles for mud rigs (sling'n mud speed) With a stock rim 1st lip cut off the back side, the hex stub is flush with the back side of the rim..On the front, from the face lip is 10mm to the hex face..   |

Personally I like the first offset, but that's because I'm running 1/20 bodies and I like the wide stance. Would it be to much to offer both offsets? That way you could chose depending upon your rig.

No trouble to offer different offsets. I'm working on the other rim design too.

Here's the spoke'd version, minus the john deer beadlock. It has the same offset as the one directly above. I can add to it as well. I will draw it up.    Last edited by Fungi; 10-11-2014 at 04:58 PM. |
