Default sporty wheels

Im looking for a beadlock 2.2 that is all the way offset, where the knuckle and hub sit deep inside the wheel, that will fit over the portals on a Capra. I don't really care what they look like, but id like something durable, and definitely a beadlock since I'm still tinkering around with foam and tire choices. I have seen the dlux wheels, and I'm wondering about any other good options.
Thanks

I just compiled a list of lesser known wheels and there are a few comp wheel options in there
2020 Lesser Known Wheel List


RCP crawlers has some similar to Dlux's offerings, Barry Sobol makes comp wheels though I think they're sold through facebook (I couldn't find an online shop)
Holmes also makes a Capra wheel but its a 1.9" and Brazin scale has a delrin 2.2" wheel though its likely to be on the heavy side and it may not have the offset you want. Theres also the 6 bolt's from Crawler Innovations.
I believe all of those are glue ons except the Brazin scale and HH wheels

Check the Classifieds - someone just sold their Capra, but not the TGH (Team Garage Hack) High offset Capra wheels that were on it - they look new.

Maybe you can get a better deal than buying them new from the maker.

Thanks for the replies!
I have a set of the TGH wheels, but they are 1.9, I'll have to double check if there are some 2.2 available.
I didn't see any 2.2 beadlock with the deep offset on that list, but thanks for a cool resource for other wheels!

You could try the new boom racing ones that you can put together in 4 different offsets. They aren't cheap though. Nice thing is you can choose the color of every single part amd order each wheel separately if you want. I think they're called "pro build" or something like that.

I am running the Bully2 rims they come with multiple hex adapters for different width offsets. They have a 6 bolt adapter pattern and fit shift hubs. They are carbon fiber with delrin inners and if my memory is correct 8 holes in the carbon fiber like the SCX wheel pattern. They are not cheap though. Try to find a used set, that's what I do. I think they run about 70 dollars new for a pair, but I have found 4 used for 100. Hope this helps
