Status: offline 		Your gonna need to get a diffrent size hex adapter because nobody runs the 20mm hex like CEN, Losi does but they don't have beadlocks available. I would suggest getting a 17mm hex conversion so you have a wider range of wheels and tires you can run.

the outer nut on the hex is 23mm, but where the wheel sits on is 20mm.

23mm Wheel Hex
CEN Racing is now applying 23mm wheel hex hubs to our NEMESIS monster truck line. With respect to the power of the NX 76 engine, we have enlarged the wheel hex for more durability. These new wheel hex's are 23% larger then the original design.

Status: offline 		And to answer your question. There are NO CEN sized Wheels(5 1/2" Dia=55 series) being made for the CEN monster truck line!! Or for any truck at all, for that matter. So you will have to drop down to the 40 series wheels which will open the door for other manufacturers like Pro-line who has:

Cheyenne Narrow(which is used a lot for Super Class Rock Crawlers)



The Commando



And the New 8 Shooter



Which all use the 23MM Drive Hex




All of which can found on Prolines website under monster trucks\wheels

Most guys are going to these 40 Series tires because there are many more tire choices

Hope this helps!!
