TXT-1 Wheel Question

[Distressed]

I want to know what the diameter of the stock TXT-1 wheels are?

Is the offset for the stock TXT-1 wheels the same as the Maximizer Beadlocks?

2.6", same as Clod wheels

No, with TTR Maxx wheel adapters, you'll lose 1/2" per side. I tried regular Maxx wheels and don't like them. I have a set of wide offset wheels ordered. The X-75 Maximizers would be cool. I'm a tightwad though so I'm getting glue-on wheels.

inet rc has wheel wideners and wheel adapters if you would use both would that bring the maximizer to stock offset? Has anyone done this and if so did it bind articulation? Just wanting to know if this setup would work?

Inet shows a TXT to Clod wheel widener, I suppose you could use the TTR adapters with those and standard offset Maximizers. Lot of money though. It'd be cheaper to use offset Maximizers and Maxx adapters. If you already own a pair of Maximizers you can get X75 offset face plates to use with your wheels.

ok does maximizer sell the x75 off set plate? If not who does?

I agree, I don't care much for the plastic X-75's. The aluminum X-75 rims look $weet. 8O

You may be able to live with the slight loss in track width from using standard offset wheels. There's a ton of pics of my TXT in this thread with standard offset Savage wheels.

I have the tires mounted to the inside of the mounting area on the backside of the rims, so the overall width of standard offset Maximizers would look a tad narrower.
