Will non 6 bolt 2.2 wheels work?

i recently upgraded the rear with Axial's full width adapter. the intention was to have the same track width all around so i could have more wheel options. i installed a set of aluminum 12mm hexes now im just trying to find some wheels to slap on. i saw that proline had a set of 2.2 beadlocks and i wanted to give them a shot but i wanted to make sure they would work.

my concern is that the proline front offset might interfere with the steering knuckle since the stock setup with the 6 bolt hub already has very little clearance. the proline wheel above will eliminate the need for the 6 bolt hub which will have the wheel closer to the steering knuckle.

anyone have any experience with this? will this work or do you have any other recommendations?
 
Sorry I have no experience with those wheels. it says they will work. If your setup is stock I'd imagine they would.

I've always used Crawler Innovation 6 Bolt wheels and then Vanquish SLW hubs. There glue on wheels but I don't mind.
 
I would stick to any wheel that uses an SLW type hub so you can get the offset you are looking for.
