Dang, those are pretty sweet
I like how they tuck right up next to the C-hubs. Those are mounted up with the stock knuckles, right?

RD,
Are you offering this reversed offset? I am trying to build a 2.2 clod and want to use these wheels..problem is the offset. What you are showing here is exactly what I need.

Let me know,
John

I have new Pede wheels and was going to do the same thing. Cool glad to know it can work. How did you make those wheels?

Here's a pic of my 2.2 txt with pede rims, narrowed on the outside, 11.5" outside of tire to outside of tire, 6 1/8" between the tires. Notice how the tires totally cover the axle "c"s.


Next to the tlt



I know these aren't clod axles, but they use the same axleshafts.

It's the same as yours, but I am putting a wide rock ring on to hide the work. From the looks of it, you are doing the same.

The clod axles I ordered showed up today. I put them together and put my modified 2.2 wheel/tire combo on to see what width I would be at.
I'm at 11 3/4" outside of tire to outside of tire, with 6 1/4 between the tires, with CVD's.
I like the way the axle "C"s are covered by tire, so they don't get hung up on the rocks.

Nathan you would be a lot narrower if you didnt have the mini giant tracks, those tires fold over the rim so to speeak quite a bit. I know that is not what you are going for but I thought I would throwe it out there. Personalally I would sacrifice the width like you are to cover those axle C's

You are going to make the 2.2 class interesting

Dev, I could get narrower, but I really want to keep those "C"s covered, as they got hung up on everything when I had the mashers on there with the "c"s exposed.
