2.2" is the correct size for 1/10th electric off road wheels. So you need not worry:thumbsup:

on the outside of the rim may be but the tires don't sit on that they sit in the recess

I was just about to mount up some tyres on the b4 wheels so got my digital micrometer out...

#9589 B4 RR 2.2 wheel.

Inner rim (that the tyre sits on) = 55.44mm = 2.185"
Outer lip (that holds the tyre) = 60.66mm = 2.388"

the Schumacher 12x20 minispike tyres have an inner tyre lip dia. of 2.2" = 55.91mm

I've not tested any other wheel/tyre combos as these were just what I had on my desk in front of me.

HI AGAIN YES I THINK THAT A 2.2" WILL FIT ACCORDING TO MOST. WILL TRY THEM REGARDS.
