I've got a set of 40 series moab tires and I need to know how to order wheels? Where can I buy them and how do i go about ordering them. I would like to have the ones with the double beadlocks.

Do those wheels bolt onto my txt or do I have to make them fit?

xjwalt666 · 05-31-2007, 02:29 PM

you would need to get adapters

Atchley · 05-31-2007, 03:22 PM

What kind of adapters do I need to buy?

Badmuthatrucker · 05-31-2007, 10:46 PM

I would have a shot at saying, the ones they use to put 40 series onto clods. I have no idea who makes them, though. Atleast you have a start.... Plenty of Clod sticks run them.

Are you going to crawl?. They seem good for that.

I, and a friend had the chance to try some 40 series Mashers on the old discontinued Proline rims, made to fit these trucks. They were woefull, for fast monster bashing. I took them off nearly straight away, my buddy Phil persisted and his ESP 3 Clod ended up with 2 very bent stub axles, basicaly from the tyres having no bounce, and relayed everything straight into the suspension. Fine for maxx's and stuff, but not for out Monsters.

It says on the bender customs website that I may have to narrow the inner bead on my wheels. I'm gonna order the commando beadlocks. Would I have to narrow them or just use wheel spacers or something.

You'll have to narrow them indeed fot better(oppinion) performence and youre possible rubbing.
If you narrow them down to 2" you will be at the perfect width

Atchley · 06-06-2007, 09:52 AM

Go to tech on the frontpage of RCC, you'll find a tut on it

I was looking at the rc4wd website and found aluminum adapters for 12mm to 23mm for a txt that space them out 3/4" so you dont have to narrow the wheels.

It's up to you, buy stuff and bolt it or mod things you allready have and save some money ......

.... so you can buy other parts

Atchley · 06-06-2007, 02:39 PM

Youve got a point, I may try to narrow my stock wheels for practice. But im not sure what I want to do yet.

Badmuthatrucker · 06-07-2007, 03:37 AM

Or, source some Juggernaut 2 wheels. Look like TXT, but are a bead-width narrower... I'm going to do that, and then noarrow those some

Atchley · 06-08-2007, 02:09 PM

I decided to not be cheap and ordered the rc4wd adapters yesterday. I also bought a pimp cane crawler off ebay today.
