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!  |

 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. | |

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?  |
