I am fresh into rc after a 7 year vacation from it. have a brand new Losi Aftershock. I want to dye the wheels. I went to take the wheels off and three came off with little effort. The right side rear wheel will not let go & I've looked into it and not getting anywhere. I don't want to break anything either. Any help, please?

Sorry if I posted this in the wrong spot. I'm new to this too.
 
Have you tried boiling the tire/wheel? That will usually do the trick.
 
It's getting the wheel off of the axle that I'm having the problem with. Sorry, I should've been more specific.
 
Strange.

Have you tried holding the wheel in both hands and pushing down on the axle thread with your thumbs?

I'm not familiar with the Aftershock though.

What about hitting it a crack with a bit of wood? The losi wheels are very strong and flexible, it shouldn't break them.
 
+1. Thread the nut on so that the threads are close to the end of the nut, but not protruding. Then tap on the nut while holding pressure on the wheel. It should let go. You probably have a stripped hex or wheel.
