Default Clod wheels on wraith axles

I know this topic has been covered a time or 2, but it seems like every time I found a solution when I clicked on link to find the part I needed it seems the parts are no longer available.

For the guys that's done it can u recommend / show me a good way to get this done.

Are you going monster truck or mega truck . If mega they also make a narrowed rim now clod sized but with wraith hex .

Or you could mod the clod wheels with vp or rc4wd hubs .

I'm going monster truck u already have the clod wheels and b&h tires. I was hoping to be able to us a 12mm to 12mm widener but it seems no one is carrying those anymore. Might just end up making some myself

The adapters are tough as nails. So many in use without issue. Guys are jumping several feet and not having a problem. You'll start breaking axle housings long before you break a CPE printed anything.

The other option is to glue a 2.2 wheel into the clod wheel. That'll give you the clearance and 12mm hex. Easier to mount the wheels on that way but honestly. You'll crack your wheels, axle housings, break off servo mounts etc loooonnnng before you break a CPE adapter.

I found what I was looking for tonight on ebay funny thing was it was totally random and I was actually looking for something else. These won't require me to mod anything only downside is I hate sending it wasnt a usa item but I suppose we will see how they do

How are those going to solve your problem though? Clod wheels don't use a hex, they are pin drive.

As for material I don't know. You'd have to message CPE

Just checked the site. He uses polyactide thermoplastic. Whatever that is haha

That's pla it's just the technical term for it.

This is what is inside clod wheel

One side goes inside the hub piece the other side will slide right on to shaft pin. I won't even use the 12mm hex on the wraith axles

Okay you have the drive hubs. Well that makes more sense then. I thought you were just going to try to bolt clod wheels strait to a 12mm hex haha

No lol.. i may later figure out how to do a beadlock rim or something like that wouldn't look bad with the wheels drilled.
