On my phone they don't show, on my tablet they do.

Just in case I do not get my pic issues figured out I'll give a summary of the mod and what to expect:



The flares are cheap... hardware will be biggest expense total of about 25 to 30$ for everything.

The flares come with dummy holes filled in with fake bolts molded into the rubber every other hole, drill and trim thesee out. The flares are not a perfect fit for stock openings, you need to use all screw hole locations to help shape the rubber flare to the opening. you will also have to cut some of the flare at each end with stock wells. My wells were cut out already, and they fit almost perfectly needing only a little shaping and no trimming.

You will need to space your rims out about a 1/4" to 3/8" or it will look a little silly, the flares stick out pretty far.

So imo, easy, cheap , very strong, looks good.


If I figure out my pics I will post some

Been asking for a couple of days..., really want to order... could someone tell me what hubs I need to widen my track? They need to fit ssd 1.9 scale trail beadlocks, and I need to widen the truck about a 1/2" total (1/4" per side). Confused as to what to buy... thanks for any help in advance

Sometimes wide wheel hexes will work. Traxxas typically has wide hexes to begin with. Or you can get wheels with interchangeable hubs and go wider there.

Now ALL of the photos show for me.

The stock SSD hubs are a little narrower than a .225 SLW hub so .475 SLW hubs would be slightly more 1/4" of width per side.

You would just need to pick up some 4-40 screws to mount up the hubs.
