| Guys running VP SLW's
So I have been looking at a new set of wheels and fell in love with VP's SLW wheels but I am having a hard time figuring out what hub width to run. So I am hoping for some help from the bully family So I know I want to run the 1" wide wheel. I am currently at 9 3/4" ring to ring width on my bully and I would love to be 1/4 wider in the front from that with the new wheels. So can somebody help me figure out what dang hubs I need to order(I wish they would update there site with bully width info). spanks |

The Bully axles are the same width as the Axial.

So if I am getting this right. The site shows with axial that the widest you can get with the 725 hubs is 9.17

I ordered the 475 600 and the 725's when I got my SLW's The 475 on back put me right at 10" on the bullies I cant go any narrower though due to battery being on the rear axle Will put the 600's in front and will be just perfect. |

that measurement should be ring to ring not outside of tire. i think you should be close to 10 inches if not wider with those. i know on a one inch wheel the hex is flush with the inside lip of the wheel

So it looks like my only option is 600 rear and 725 for the front.

im running a berg offset in the rear. puts me at 9.75 and i still able to put my lipo out back so i have the stock axial vanquish dh's and slws out back with berg offset takes a bit of getting used to but really helps in tight courses alot easier to get a skinnier rear end though the gates then a fat one when you have to take a turn right at the gate to get lined up for the next one. saved me a few points at my last comp
