T4.1 problems

I have a t4.1 and I just recently purchased some rpm wheels. they are the revolver and bully style. anyway, i glued tires and mounted them. the fronts hit the a arm when i turn the wheel all the way. I have a dx3s and i put the travel down to 65% before it stopped rubbing the a arm. I tryed spacing the wheels but when I put shims in it the wheel locks up and you cant spin the wheel. when I loosen the axle nut enough to spin the wheel the wheel itself becomes wobbly. this sux because i just spent over $100 on wheels and tires. has anyone else run into this and if so what is the fix?!?!?!?!

Satisfied.

So does the tire look up with the steering epa @100% when it hits the a-arm?

Get it? Got it? Good!

Now let's examine what this means. If you see something that you don't like, REPORT the post. If you see an obvious scam, that's fine -- call a spade a spade -- but please do not try to "police" these forums on your own. Our moderators are more than capable of locking, deleting, and censoring threads. However, they can only do this if a post gets REPORTED.

Thanks!

"Our" moderators, who are you? One of the first things you read upon joining rctech is a highlighted post that tells you to ask questions in the forum it belongs to, before you start a new thread.

I was copying and pasting the rule that says that.

I thought the "steering stops" would hit before the rim would actually hit the arm.

Can you post a picture? Can you supply part number of wheels?
