| narrowed axials and narrowed M2K's
I narrowed a set of black chrome axials to use my narrowed M2K's on, rims are narrowed 10mm, what do you think? I drilled the holes out to 1/8" and threaded the rear rings so there are only 6 screws to do each wheel....you can see how the sides are pulled in, in the last pic |

| Did you glue the wheels together too? Is it hard to get everything lined up and the beads seated properly when installing new tires? I like the idea of tapping the backside rings. |

| the rims are glued, if the tires were not narrowed it would be real hard, but these went together real easy |
