Ok thats what I figured. But I didnt know because I only went in a little over 1/4 in. and thats what most guys do it seems like. I'll try a little less and see if it works. Thanks Guys.

How about some 2.2 Stalkers for the RC4WD Bully axles?

Wouldn't that be an Axial offset rim?

Sent you a PM but I'll ask here as well...

Would there be an issue running 2.2 Assassins with the Axial black aluminum wheel hexes?

My concern is that the nubs on the hex won't allow the rim to seat properly.

I dont think there will be. I have the green AL ones with no problems.

I say this because the outer rings has more material on the inner diameter. I did this to mine because the screws were hitting my KK steering link that is mounted on the inner most hole on axial knuckles

Thank you as well, although it sounds like I'll be good. I'm using Axial axles, not Berg. Good tip though

What about using some kind of wheel widener on the front?

Or run Axial offset on the front axle AND Berg offset on the rear?

Other than not being able to purchase just 2 DNA wheels is the latter a doable option worth considering?

I'm kinda diggin' being down to almost 9" in the rear w/ my HR axles.
