23mm hexes and rims

[gumleguf]

I have the same issue. One of my trucks has UE 6mm CVD's with 14mm Hex' and I'm using Dace 23mm adapters to be able to use my Pro-Line 40 series bead-loc wheels. I *LOVE* this set up but it is limited what tires are around now, although Pro-line still has a few.

At least now the 23mm wheels are cheap. I bought 8 pairs of these (why not? - it's $6 for 2 wheels!): http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pro-Line-40-...ht_1001wt_1141

I think 17mm works fine and is strong enough, but I do like the extra strength and the look 'n feel of 23mm.

I love the 23mm wheels because I have striped a few 17mm wheels on my Summit. I also got a few sets from eBay at that same price. couldn't pass them up. There are still some good tire choices out there. The other thing about running 23mm hexes is that with a little foil tape I can run any wheel made for a Baja great for the 1/5 scale conversions.
