Default Micro wheel spacers?

Does anyone know where I can get some 7mm (micro hex) wheel wideners? Id like to push the wheels out on a micro I have and can not find anything to do so.

Ive googled 7mm wheel hex widener, spacer, hub, adapter, and I can't find anything but custom offset shapeways wheels which Id rather not use.

If anyone has a source please let me know.

Thank you,
BW

Somebody used to sell them on eBay, but I don't see them anymore.

Mil Stone brass wideners.
Keep in mind the Trekker already has wideners so extending past the knuckle gives a horrible scrub radius causing the entire wheel to shift when it turns.

He's out of stock at the moment, but the seller is https://ebay.com/usr/kinetic-kms

Heres a set from Amazon. I ordered these for my RGT Adventurer to fit some RC4WD wheels. I never actually installed them because I lost a BUNCH of the screws trying to put the stupid wheels together and ultimately got frustrated and gave up, although I'll probably revisit it this summer.

Those are standard 7mm wheel hexes and are only 3.5mm thick. I'm not sure what stock hexes are, but without a barrel nut I wouldn't expect to get the wheel past the threads of the axle shaft.
