Default Rim Choice

are their any rims out there that will fit a TXT & the Jumbo Swamp Dawgs other that the IMEX ones without having to use an adapter or switch to clod axles?

No. The TXT wheel is smaller than the tire hole on the IMEX tire. You would need to increase the tire hole diameter. This is easily done. You can see how I did it with my BFT tires on TXT Wheels. Should work out about the same with the IMEX tires. As for width, that won't be any problem at all.
