Has anyone tried to use OFNA Wheels (The Model I bought is #81054) on a Mugen MBX5R? The wheel fits, but the inset for the hub is a little too deep thus making the inside of the wheel around the inset rub against the wheel uprights causing a bind. I was thinking of grinding down the inside of the wheel to allow enough clearance, but before I did that I thought someone might know of a shim that is available to fit inside the inset. It would have to be the size of a wheel nut with a hole big enough for the hub, yet thin enough to allow the hub to still fit inside the inset. Anyone have any suggestions?

ive seen it happen quite often advantage racing wheels fit as do most dish wheels but the ofa spoke wheels dont clear the hubs

also if you want to try to shim it outward these should work

i use to run those same rims on my mugen MBX5..........i ended up buying the 3 MM offset hubs so i could use those rims

Thanks for the advise. Any idea where to get them? I can find 1mm or 2mm, but no 3mm.

I had that same issue with a different Ofna wheel on my Raze. I just trimmed the backside of the spokes till they cleared the hubs, seems to be fine. I don't race only bash around the street and yard...

They do actualy have plastic shims that are the hex shape to off set the rim they come in several widths. I will try to remember where I got them. I do have a couple floating around my shop somewhere.

That sounds like what I'm looking for. If you remeber where to get them, I'd appreciate the link.
