TMAXX Rims Different offsets

[tootallpaul]

hey all I'm looking for new rims for my tmaxx (destroyed the old ones)
Does anyone know who makes a rim with an offset that will give me a wider stance? I tried hub extensions and they lasted a day. I still have 14mm hubs (aluminum) and a new set of big joe 40 tires thanks for the help

RPM used to make a rim called the stablemaxx, I am not sure if they still do. I still have a set on my old original width T-Maxx.

Just checked, and yes they are still available...

However I don't think these will work with big joe tires.

It will be easier to find offset rims if you have 17 or 23 mm hubs. 23 are stronger but 17 should be enough, plus you have about a billion wheel choices. With the extra size/weight of the big joe's, the 14mm hubs will probably strip pretty quickly if you don't get a REALLY good quality rim (like rpm, but of course they are only for standard size tires). If you get 17 or 23mm adapters, it will set you back about $20, but if you stay with 14mm and then strip your wheel hexes, you now have a useless set of wheels and tires.

RPM also makes sevral stablemaxx rims with a 17mm hex, I posted the 14 because that is what is stock on a maxx, and that is what he said he had.

have you looked at these, aluminium in 14 or 17mm hex, huge offset and sounds like a really good warranty and not expensive either (least i dont think they are) i was planning to order a set myself soon.
