Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

I wonder if this mod can be done with a stock xr wheel?

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

I USED 3/32 lexan but next time i will us 1/8 so i can countersink the hardware.

you just made me want to spend a lot of money since i can save so much :ror: i sold my comp rig a couple months ago to get a wraith now i want to get another one since i can make rims so cheap!

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

very cool. gotta love it when you can do mods that work great and are cheap.

Just finished these up last night...it's funny now with this mod I look for wheels that need to be 12mm modded instead of buying ready to roll. Quite fun actually!"thumbsup"

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

Nice work!"thumbsup"

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

Man those came out killer.It's nice to see so many people making there own stuff put a new spin on recycling "thumbsup"

Also, any of JConcepts "Tense" wheels are a direct bolt up to SLW Hubs :mrgreen:
Bolt pattern is exactly the same..
I was messing around with the flashy decor hubs the other day on the Axial 1.9's. Too much for this wheel/tire combo though.

thx Mr V "thumbsup" looking for bout 3/4" to 1" wide wheels and needed to know if i'm ordering 10mm or 15mm posts.........bob

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

With 15mm they were 1 1/8 so with 10mm should be pretty close to 1in. Post up when you get them done"thumbsup"

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

Well finished my mod tonight. The first 2 took a little longer than expected but the second 2 I did in no time!

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

Great job they look killer"thumbsup"

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

I'm having no luck finding spacers that I can screw into to make some custom wheels out of my stock losi ones. Were do I find different width spacers to order that are threaded, or can be tapped?:evil:
