I was looking at the 1.9's what is the best combination of offset and hex's hubs for a stock honcho?

I am working on trying to get an answer to your question...

kasey · 06-22-2010, 07:31 AM

Thanks they look really good.

kasey · 07-03-2010, 09:39 AM

Did you ever get an answer?

jeeper_05 · 07-03-2010, 09:41 AM

No, they are working on getting me a measurement, sorry. I will update this as soon as they let me know...

dubAron · 07-03-2010, 02:33 PM

those rims are sick I need some!

jeeper_05 · 07-11-2010, 10:45 PM

Tom inspired me to chuck up my wheels in my lathe, since wheeling them, the outside face was getting scratched a little anyways, so I figured what they hay! They turned out SICK! Sorry for the embarrassingly crappy cell pics!

8.5" is stock axial beadlock width...350 is the smallest hub you can run on these and that puts you bit a more narrow track width at 8.450 inches.

So basically, on the 1.9
350=8.450
475=8.700
600=8.950
725=9.200
850=9.450

kasey · 07-12-2010, 07:14 AM

Thanks

Now to see if I want a bit narrower or a bit wider stance.

I am thinking a 475 would probably be good size to go with.

Aww Grasshopper, you are learning the way of the machine tools.

Great work Scott ! Of course the guys at VP did provide you with a top notch wheel to play with.

You are right Dave, I am slowly learning, and yes, VP did provide an AWESOME wheel to start with!

i just got my nova dd foams and pitbulls in the mail. 5.25 outers and 1.25" CAC 1 off custom wheels, should be sweet. will post pics after i get them mounted. I just have to figure out how narrow to take the inner foam down too??? any hints or should i leave it full width?? cant wait to get out onto the trail with these things mounted on my wreckluse!

jeeper_05 · 07-15-2010, 02:27 PM

Don't trim your foam at all. You have a good setup to start with. If you feel the need to make em softer, which I don't think you will, then trim and tune.

rockrigcustoms · 07-16-2010, 11:38 AM

well i got my pitbulls, nova dd foams and my CAC rims all ready to rip!! took them out this am on acouple test rocks i always use and.................... SYKED!!!!!!! these babys hook

took lines ive taken with my rox lox, and white rovers and conquoered with ease..
they look awesome and the width is great for my heavy 2.2 wreckluse. hopefully do some more crawling my local crawlin spot this weekend and have more info... so far this is the best tire, rim, foam set up for me yet!!

WolverineX · 07-17-2010, 04:22 AM

Pics aren't working buddy!

Agama · 11-28-2010, 11:17 AM

I'm going to order some of these wheels, quick question. Can you add internal weights to the plastic ring? These are going on a KOH tube chassis, and I need some weight in the wheels. Thanks

I don't see why not, might make stuffing foam fun, but it'll work
