I don't think they're commercially available yet.

Anyone have experience with using them externally?

Thank you!
Ok sorry. I'm confused what does this do that a hex wrench can't do?

What is the benefit of the JC inverse wheel over the strand wheel?

Stiffer wheelset, smooth inside doesn't attract dirt.

The absolute sickness of the inner black of the wheels easily adds 1 lap to your qualifying run!!!

Ran b4.2 tonight, set up to kit specs but ran 27.5 in rear shocks. Panthers all the way around with open cell in front and pr cell in rear. Ran three different size batteries, like the steering with the shorty for some reason but liked the after jump feeling of the full size. I think my diff or slipper is off. I try to adjust slipper, have the nut loose and it slips as I tighten the front never pops off the ground it just makes an ugly slipper sound like it is pissed off. Going to take apart tomorrow but cool car, going to build another one for our 17.5 class.

Tried green front springs with 32.5 1.6 pistons along with whites in the rear with 27.5 and white springs. Worked really well, even on a dry track. This was coming from black fronts and green rears.

The 32.5 front oil is what made the greens decent. With 30 weight, the front was just too twitchy.
