The fitment of the Proline Protrac wheels sucks.
The wheel bottoms out on the raised shoulder of the hex before the wheel bore engages the axle. This makes it wobbly, and combined with the thicker hub, the nyloc nut doesn't fit well.
I think this wheel MIGHT work with a hex that doesn't have the shoulder, perhaps the Tekno slash 4x4 one. Until then these protrac wheels are going on the shelf.

I think we need more confirmation on this before taking it to the start post.

They fit all funky because they are not seated fully against the hex. The Prolines are not a true 6mm, so you need to drill them out. You need a 15/64 drill bit, then they fit nice and tight.
