Wheels for 40 Series tires
 
I want to try a set of Proline 40 Series tires on my T-maxx but do not like any of their wheels.[&o]

Does anyone know of any other companies that make 40 Series size wheels or is it just a Proline thing?

Might just be a pro line thing, not sure though so dont quote me....check on ebay, search for 40 series wheels.....there might be some beadlock aluminum ones on there..who knows!

Aluminum rims are now available for the 40 series.

Chrome $195.00/set of 4

No, they are not cheap imitation rims. I like the best for my truck. Its a big hunk of aluminum to machine most of it away.

Alot of people keep asking me for a less expensive version. Maybe I will make some 5 hole rims, without all of the details that makes it go up in cost.

RE: Wheels for 40 Series tires
 
That would be cool. I'll keep an eye out for that.

I finished a run of 5 Hole rims for the 40 series. I was able to reduce the machining time and cost, by taking out some of the finer details. I lowered the price considerably on this version.

wow, nice wheels. Gotta love chrome, do you have a pic of them on a truck by any chance?
I really have to try and program some wheels someday.

Here is the show truck with them on. I'll take some pictures of my race truck this afternoon.

I'll have to mount some spinners on these, and see how they look.

Mr. RAMTech-RC, I am going to purchase a set of chrome sidewinder 40 series wheels from you. I need to know first if they are available with a offset for the T-maxx. I'm looking for a wheel to make the truck a little wider and have a nice "deep dish" effect. thanks.

my truck = 50 cm wide and 55 mc long...guess whos not gonna roll over nemore :D

RE: Wheels for 40 Series tires
 
Holty, see what I meant about wider is not always better. Looks kind of wierd with the width being the same size as the length.

the claw dawgs are exxcellent tires and there is no rolling over either here iis a pic of my raptor with them on awsome tires and the stance of mine is literaly 20 inches wide and 22 inches long the stance is awsome. my personal opinion...:D

USABaja5B 11-11-2004 09:04 PM

RE: Wheels for 40 Series tires
 
That looks good on a Raptor. But on a regular T-Maxx, it will look quite odd. My opinion of course. The great thing is, it doesn't matter what anyone thinks, its up to you.
