I think you'll be out of luck for the 2.6" diameter, my friend... Unfortunately. |

Crushlocks, guy on Facebook rc mega truck group cuts and sells them, really narrow and I don’t see you ever losing a bead.

A guy in knoxville stretched them over a set of 2.8 headlock. Don't know if the wheels were narrowed or not. Wayne |

But I'll be dam*ed. EBay shows the tire sidewall size as 5.3x2.2x2.6. Usually the last number is wheel diameter. Goi g to have to check more into this. Wayne |

Motoworx has a 2.8 beadlock for Traxxas style beads. Not sure if these would work. http://motoworxracing.com/?product=5-spoke-split-design |

Pretty sure this is the Integy wheel you are looking for. It’s 3.0 size bead lock wheel. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F131610468662 |

Crushlocks are available as beadlocks too. I have a set coming for a new build. The sling kings are already here.

There is also a guy on the RC mega truck page that sells different size spacers for the crush locks. So if crush locks aren't you thing. They can be made in different colors for different builds along with different widths and can make different offsets. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1221...1757883778462/ |
