Questions?? blast rims on losi xxl??

Hi to all..

I got a quick question for you guys. Are the blast rims with mounted goliath tires. Are they the same size a the xxl rims?? I'm wanting to know this because I'm wanting a new set of rims and tires and like the way the blast rims and the goliath tires look. So if any knows the size to the blast rims compared to the xxl rims please let me know. Thanks to all who help..

I think they're 40 series vs the losi 420 series. I'd like to know how to convert my xxl to 17mm, guess I'll start searching.

I don't know nothing about the size of 40 series vs the 420 series. Is the 40 series smaller then the 420 series or is it the other way around?? If so how much smaller are the 40 than the 420 I don't want them to be a lot smaller than my xxl rims. I wouldn't mind if they were barley noticeable to the xxl rims. So if any any body knows the width size on the blast vs the xxl rims. They say the blast are 2.76 width and I can't find no were what the width are of the xxl rims are. Any help I will much appreciate it. Thanks all who help..

I use 17mm hubs from my Ofna Ultra LX Comp. You can get them CHEAP on ebay. Just search Ofna lx comp, and they'll come up.

If you can't find them there, go to nitrohouse.com and they'll have 'em, just cost more.

Thank you guys....

I don't know what the size of a 420 wheel is either come to think of it. They must be larger than the 40 series though.

Cool

Thanks for the good news. I was hoping there were going to be the same size because I think the xxl would look stupid with like a revo size tire on it lol. Thanks once again for the info.

Yea I wanted to know about the blast rims being the same size as the xxl. Before I bought the 17mm hex conversion for it. I am now going to buy me some blast rims and goliath tires for the xxl. I think it will make the truck look nice with my proline f650 body..
