2.2 narrow wheels? - rusty savage - 05-16-2006

anyone know of any other rims besides bandit fronts that are 2.2 and skinny like that? they are going on my mini quake! Ive got the adapters on the quake already and im currently running some rs4 wheels and tires. for off road I have some rally tires that are fairly narrow and will fit on 2.2 wheels. any help?

ok ive been lookin at super nirto rs4 wheels, and white spoked wheels got my attention! any one know where to get them other then ebay?

Wouldn't the SNRS4 rims/tires be too big?

You could section them and make them narrower.

Take standard buggy 2.2 wheels and glue/JB weld a 12mm hex in the larger hex. The hex adapter will just stay with the wheel when you take them off.

looks good rusty! i kind of like the sky-line bod.


2.2 narrow wheels? - rusty savage - 06-30-2006

I dig the sky line too. its an old body from a micro rs4. but it is a touch too wide with the super rs4 combo. with reg rs4 tires its perfect! so on road I run the car body off road the truck!

also on a side note. if any one ever gets a mamba controller get the link cable! what a world of differance it makes. better run times, lower temp, better breaks.... well worth 20 bucks!

Looks good Mark!

+1 for the Castle Link.. its the way to go for any Castle creations controllers.
