cen wheels on rampage

[rchobby89]

do the cen wheels fit the rampage thanks in advance

 

[tsudo5th]

The matrix wheels I have are 23mm but the hole would need to be enlarged a bit.

 

[rchobby89]

sweet that's no problem as long as the squar hub fits I like the looke of there short course wheels they look almost real I think thanks for the reply

If your talking about the X series square drive those are 17mm squares. The MT, TT and Dune Runner have a 22mm hex.

 

[tsudo5th]

22? Oh sorry thought they were 23mm.

 

[rampagemt]

It is a 23 mm hex and bajas got 24

 

[Guest]

They might still work. I'm not sure how tight the 23mm is. Most wheels have a insert that's .5 to a whole mill larger than the adapter.

Some one wanted me to try those wheels once cause they had a cen genesis but i didn't like the idea of using 1/8th scale wheels on a 1/5 but its worth a shot. If you end up trying I would Like to see a pic

Thanks for clearing that up. I learned something new for the past 6 months I thought it was 23.

[rampagemt]

[Deluge]

I figured. I got lazy and didn't want to quote Ramp. Fixed now.

 

[Deluge]

Also, you're better off with HPI tires/wheels. You'll have a ton of options for different surfaces.

 

[rchobby89]

ya that's what I'm going to do I just stripped a wheel on my xsc should I run rears or fronts I kinda want rears so I can use paddle tiresor will paddles work on the fronts also

 

[Deluge]

They don't make paddles for HPI fronts. I'd stick with the rears.

 

[rchobby89]

k thank you I can get a pair of the desperatos cheap will any hpi rear tire fit those rim or do the beads have to be for the desperatos
