dx3r "bling" wheels

[BlueMonster]

If you aren't afraid to mod the stock wheel and use a little epoxy, you can use any wheel you want...

any one here have one of those plus a dx3r, that could see about interchangability?

the DX3,2,3.0,2.0 are all JR radios and use JR wheels. I am pretty sure the 3R also use's the same wheel mounting set up I have seen the wheel changed to aftermarket wheels.

The 3R uses a square drive but it is a larger square than the others.

You can get a Hiro Seiko wheel. They have many different wheel designs and color ways as well as different rotor styles and colors.

Here is mine

Here's what am running on mine. Like everyone else there noigthing out there so just got it both of them. I really like the foam on it better than the stock one.

Ya for me its not so much about the feel, im not hard core enough to care that much hahaha, i just want somthing that looks cool, while not looking like an import wheel

I would go for a SLW wheel! I'll test the proto for you aswell. LMK

i agree these are the best grip wheels out there ...unfortunately they are too big for the dx3r wheel but i just cut mine and fit it to the wheel and glued it with ca glue and it works great ....the kimbrough grips fit losi dsm radios and also nomadio react wheels perfect ..i dont know if the nomado wheel would fit on the dx3r but might be something to look into...
here is a pic of mine with the kimbrough grip..

i too think it would be the shizz to have some or atleast one of the wheel vendors here make some wheels for the 3r. i personally would like so see a bada$$ beadlock wheel made for em. .. .

[The Violator]

Been to lazy to find my camera. And I think I have a spare wheel if someone else want to give it a go.

pro tip:

i use 4, 1/2 inch pieces of the clear servo tape.

space them evenly in the grip. try streching the grip over the dx3r wheel as evenly as you can. then press into place

did this w/ my dx3r almost a year ago and the servo tape is still holding like a champ

pro tip: the kimbrough grip is way to big to do this thats why its cut..i had to cut about 1.4+in out of the grip to make it fit....if i used servo tape it would leave a big gap and it wouldnt be solid...

i didnt need to cut mine at all, the servo tape did the trick for me

Well it looks fine to me and if you want to go this route and its too big, then nothing that Ole trust E-6000 cant fix. spread it out, put the grip on and then rubber band the hell outta it. In about 4 hours it should be good to go.

In the mean time I think Im gonna get a 1.55 rim from RC4WD and tire as They will sell ya one upon request. and give it a go for trial. I might even just stick with a 1.9 rim and tire thou as maybe thats a better size.

that would be cool f they did come in different sizes..i tried your way and the gap was very visable...i would love to know if the nomadio wheel would fit because that was my last radio and it fit perfect ...and the wheel looks cool too..

I just used a flywheels wheel, and put a cover behind it to hide the existing steering wheel on my JR radio. I used 3M 2 sided tape to hold it in place and you can get all sorts of wheels from them. There is even a BF goodrich A/T offroad tire on a offroad rim if you look hard enough. Ebay is probably your best bet now though.
