Status: offline 		You have to buy Clod specific wheel adapters.  No other adapter is going to work.  They don't bolt on with hexes like your T-Maxx.  Look up the Clod wheel adapters and buy them.  Those are the ONLY ones that will work to my knowledge.  You can buy aftermarket aluminium ones too if you'd prefer those over the stock plastic adapters.

Edit:  Yeah, I was off.  I just looked at my Clod and forgot how the wheel adapters mount.  I was thinking they were like the Lunchbox mounts, but they're way different.  You're going to have to go with what the post below this says.

The are a bit pricey, but can be found on E-Bay occasionaly.
The Clodbuster tires and rims allso substantially wider than the T-Maxx and change the overall gearing.

Status: offline 		I've never seen those in person. Would venture a guess that the inner hex fits over the T-Maxx 14mm drive hex, then the outer male hex would fit inside the 5 male drive pins sticking out in the Clod wheel?
Certainly cheaper, if you try some let us know how they work.

Those new era ones will not work.  those are for using t-maxx wheels on your clod.  You need the other way around.

The clod has 12mm hexes that fit into a plastic adapter with like 5 holes in it.  that part fits onto the clod wheel. 
Your T-maxx has a hex that plugs straight into your wheel (a one peice design instead of two pieces like a clod wheel).

It might be cheaper to just get some clod style wheels that are hex keyed on the back that will bolt right onto the hexes of your t-maxx.  I thought Imex makes some like that but I could be mistaken.
