Rims and Tires.

I used the Parma Plaid/Purple, rubber worked great but I found the rims to be made for the TC3 and American axles and hex pieces.

I'm now looking for rims that are tighter on the axles.

Tamiya measurments:
> hex pieces: 12.00mm
> axles 5mm

Parma measurements:
> hex pieces in the rim: 12.25-12.30mm
> axles hole is drill to accept and 8-32 axle.

Problem:
> rim wobbles on the Tamiya axles until clamped down
> after running noticed that the inside of the rim shows signs of the hex's digging in the rim

Anyone have recommendation on which rims fit the axles tighter
