Widest offset 12mm hex wheels

[stuey]

Hi guys. I am looking for a wide offset 12mm hex rear wheel to go on my Tamiya Frog (Revival runner), can anyone suggest what might suit? The 12mm hex converters narrow the car down from the standard wide offset wheels, so I need to try and regain some of the width.
Cheers

See what you can do with a set of washers to space it out,

if this isn't possible and your using wheels that are easily replaced, you can do what I've done and heat the wheels (carefully) with a heat gun until they start to get soft, then use a screwdriver handle or similar to push the centre of the wheel in and make offset, however some kind of jig will need to be fabricobbled together and the wheels will be a bit wonky if you are not accurate.

TLR make various width hex for their 22 range of cars, the plus 1.5mm is part number TLR2932 Aluminium +1.5mm Width Rear Hex they also do a +0.75mm one to.


They slide on the axle and locate on a pin before being clamped in pace with a screw.

Thanks guys. There is no option to add wider hexes, the adaptors are at the full width available governed by the driveshafts. Thats why I am trying to find out which wheels have the widest offset, perhaps they are not much different I dont know.

Theres not alot between any brands, your talking a couple mm at most.

I suspected as much, thought I would ask anyways. I am still running pin wheels on my cars!

There is quite a few options available.
First and most obvious option, Tamiya Star Dish wheels

HPI 3031 Super Star wheels
HPI 100868 Ultra 5 wheels

Wheels to fit 2.2" buggy tyres on 1/16th mini E-Revo
JConcepts 3333B Rulux wheels for E-Revo
