shallow wheel hub for RC4WD 1.55 wagon wheels?

[Jim85IROC]

I have a set of 1.55 RC4WD wagon wheels for my Barrage, but I want to be able to pull them in tighter so they don't stick out of the body so far.

RC4WD has these shallow hubs:

Their compatibility list seems to be pretty long, but they don't explicitly state the 1.55 wagon wheels as compatible, but they do list the 1.9 wagon wheels, and the 1.55" Landies. Is anybody familiar enough with these wheels to know if there's compatibility between wheel hubs? I can't see why it wouldn't work, unless the spacing of the 5 lugs is different on the 1.9s compared to the 1.55s.

Hey JIM

I can’t so for sure that it’s works.., but I’ve been in the same boat. I’ve used these, and seem to work on a few of the 5-lug, even other brand rims.

Sorry I can’t give specifics...

Thanks. At least that gives me a little more confidence to order!

I'll measure the 1.9 and 1.55 bolt circle today and post up.

1.9 bolt circle (six bolt) is about .657"

1.55s are the same bolt circle, just checked my TF2 and my Ascender with the 1.9s.

Rc4wd 1.9 and 1.55 hubs are not the same fitting.

Edit:
The newer 1.55 wheels might be. The older ones are not.

Do you know what's different? I'm trying to figure out if it's something that I can easily modify. My only other option to get the fitment will be to 3D print a hub, which certainly won't provide the strength that I want. I don't mind redrilling some screw holes or enlarging the centers of the wheels to make something fit.

The 1.9 hubs use 2.5mm hardware and the new 1.55 5 lug wagon wheel hubs use 2mm hardware. The circle looks to be the same.

Since you're looking at the 5 lug hubs, I'm guessing you have the newer style wagon wheels and not the 6 lug older style.

These are the narrow offset hubs for the newer style 5 lug wagon wheels.
