Traxxas Talons/Proline LPR rims? - 11.10.2008, 02:49 AM

I tried searching to see if anyone has tried this combo to see if it's possible to mountg the Talons on LPR rims but came up empty. I would like to use Talons for bashing, I have discovered that when properly glued to the rims they don't balloon as much and I'm sure that taping the inside would help even more. However I want to use these with my 17mm hubs, I know the 14mm setup won't hold up for long with a 1515 2.5D on 6s I have stripped 14mm hexed with a punny TRX 3.3 so a setup running almost 2.5HP should be able to do this with ease!

Has anyone attempted to mount a Traxxas Talon (ID 3.8") on a LPR rim (OD 3.7")? I know that if the measurements where reversed they could be straetched over the rims. I also know that stock measurements aren't always spot on. Is there enough fudge factor here to make this combo work? I don't want to be the one to waste $60 to find out
