HPI Phaltlines Wheel Wrench?
 
I've had a set of phaltlines for a while now and have always used them with the included 17mm hex adapters. now i just put some ofna 17mm adapters on and i can't get my socket to fit inside the phaltlines to tighten them up. anyone know of a 17mm wheel wrench that does work with these wheels?
thanks.

This one works for me.

I just use a ratchet with 17mm socket, my normal wheel wrench doesn't fit in there either.

i don't have a wheel wrench. i use a ratchet, but my craftsman doesn't fit. guess i'll hit home depot with a phaltline in hand, if not i guess i'll go with that axial. thanks.

There's also the Kyosho wrench, which is more difficult to find but is maybe $8. That's what I've been using for these wheels, otherwise I use a different 17mm wrench.

That looks like it should work.

Street-Maxx
 
well, i ended up with a thin walled socket for my ratchet. ran me $4. now i got my phaltlines on and as soon as the loctite sets, it's time for my street-maxx to see some speed.
