Default plastic 2.2 wheels with zero backset?

hey guys (and gals), does anyone know if anyone makes a 2.2 wheel in plastic or delrin that has hubs that are flush (no back set)? I'm looking for a set of light rims my buddy can use with his P4de. He used my Mayham rims and they fit I have a .75 hub on them. does anybody know of something similar in a light weight material either plastic or delrin?

thanks for any and all help

I think this is what you are looking for.

Although I do have a couple sets of the old delrin beadlocks that have the hex flush to the inside.

there are plenty of wheels that will work. the axial 8 holes are close, rocksters, tamiya wheels warpig spoke of but non beadlock. also a good one is Venom Creeper wheels. very stout wheels.

or look for some mayhem delrin comp solids?/ I think.. look the same as warpigs rig above as far as offset goes..

the new so called "AX10" is the ridgecrest and are the same wheels as the wraith, they have a very deep hex. positive offset.

you can narrow xr10 wheels, ax10 wheels and PL wheels to have even more offset.

I might not know what Im talking about just going from my experience

no luck with any of these yet, the hub needs to be flush or proud of the edge of the rim (on the backside). nothing seems to work.

LCC rims sounds like they would work great. They are almost flush I'd give them a shot.

Tamiya Wild Dagger wheels are what you want. I just found a set of the white wagon wheels and they are offset. The Wild Dagger are flush on the inside.

Thanks for the idea. I went to the Losi site but wasn't able too locate a pic of them in the Tire and wheel section. I'll try e-bay see if I can find them there. Nobody shows the back side of there wheels, grrr.

Thanks for your help

I like the idea of bead locks are those "Wild digger" bead locks?? the Wild diggers look like they might work.
Thanks for your help you are very knowledgeable, thanks

The older MSD wheels with TLT offset are also the backset you are looking for. PM me if you like I believe I have a set I would part with. I will have to double check....
