Alot of people have ask me about this mod so i thought i would do a quick how to hope this help. Frist take a wide hex and a vp hub bolt it to a 1.9 rim. ![]() ![]() ![]() Then take a 5/32 drill bet using the hub as your guide, after that take the hub off then redrill the holes using a 1/8 drill bet. ![]() Then using a 13/32 drill to open up the center hole to fet your wheel wrench. ![]() Then you have two ways you can bolt up ether put the bolt throw the rims then add nut for that stock look or bolt them up as normal i hope this help, ![]() Last edited by MR.VERTICAL; 02-09-2017 at 10:21 PM. |

You can also adjust the width with the SLW Half Spacers from Rob B. @ CDW. ![]() Shamless Plug ![]() |

Did you shave hex down or leave it ? This great new for breathing new life into these wheels. Just leave it as is ![]() |

I had a spare wheel to try out. Decided to get it shot. I used 4-40 drill & tap set. I threaded the holes for 4-40. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This good mod for me since I have run 8mm wide hex to clear my TSS,MSD wheels. But with the axial's I can run normal width hex. It looks like I could run SCX10 narrow hex now. Awesome mod for sure! ![]() |

I really like this idea. I might be needing a wider stance for a build I'm doing. Do you think this would be better/stronger than the rc4wd wideners? I would think so, but I haven't used either. Thanks for the how to!
