What you got goin on with those 1/8th wheels? Did you put bearings in there some how or what? I see you have the nut still on the outside and not the 1/8 scale wheel nut

Currently running the new F11 rims and caliber tires but just picked up the 22SCT rims lastnight and ordered the New proline ION sc tire and of course they are on backorder so i get to wait

They came on an 810e I traded for. They're 17mm hexes with the smaller nuts? I guess some kind of conversion.

thats messede up...id be interested to see how they have that set up to work. I have 2 or 3 sets of 1/8 rims and tires mounted up that i cant use anymore after converting my 810 to a SCTE.

So that truck still has the 17mm hexes on the backside and something goin on the outside with a smaller nut like we have on the trucks? Weird cuz i still see the shaft the trucks use and what the nuts screwed too...u might have to get me some pics, lol!

You're right sir. I'll order some and fix that. It didn't seem to bother him when he was kicking my but with me running my Bump chassis SCTE with TLR tuning kit. I had to get out my 810e to run him down.

They are not losi 810 pieces (I know this because I have some).

They look a little dirtier than the ones in the tower pic, but quite possibly they are Maximizer 1/8 scale to Maxx adapters as seen in this Tower Hobbies listing:

http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXNWR8&P=ML

T/E-Maxx has 6MM axle as well as SCTE so they should fit nicely.

Edit: They could be the plastic ones and that's why they are dark in color:

http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXNWS2&P=ML ==>> For $4 you can use 17MM wheels!!

i did it with the SNR +9mm graphite towers and like it...have red front springs with silver in rear. Nice that these towers also have the holes for stock or lower mounting holes if i decide to go back to stock shocks but doubt i will since they are just as much as the 8ights but a smidget cheaper. Cut off the bolth the standoff mounts to and drilled and tapped in a new smaller bolt so i didnt have to drill out the tower mounting holes since they are so close together

Travis, since you have the same Esc / Motor combo I have, what kind of batteries are you using and what runtime do you usually get ?
