adapter my arse, drill out your 12mm hexes. then you face the problem of the 2.2" rims rubbing the knuckles. cut the knuckles down if its a crawler!

My bad, be sure that when you drill out the 12mm hex that the hole is perfectly centered, if its even the slightest bit off it the wheel will wobble up and down when its rotated hampering your crawlers performance.

Good eye, steady hand, and the right size drill.
