Default Will a 1/8th Truck Wheels fit on a 1/10th truck?

I have a Tamiya 1/10th truck and I really like the wheels shown below but the truck is a 1/8th size. I was just wondering if I could put that wheel on my 1/10th truck.

If the wheel adaptors (hexes) fit, then yes, the wheels will fit. I love the hole in them to adjust the knuckles. lol

What is your stock hex size and what are the 1/8's wheel's hex size?

I'll about guarantee you they're 14mm, and if they are, they will fit, assuming you have one of the big Tamiya nitro MT's

If you do not have one, then you're relegated to the world of 1/10 12mm hex 2.2 wheels.

The nitrage wheels wont fit. Get some pro-line stadium truck dish wheels.

Those won't fit. PL's 1/10 ST wheels are for Associated only IIRC, since they dropped the Losi lineup.

His best bet is HPI 2.2 wheels

Oh. Not sure if they will work but Traxxas also makes dish wheels for ST's.

I don't believe that Traxxas's dish ST wheels have a 12mm hex

I know that stock wheels on the jato and rustler do so I'm gonna assume that the dish wheels would aswell.
