hi guys

i have just been given 8 wheels from a friend that take a 17mm hex

my buggy & truggy both use a 12mm hex were can i get some adaptors so i can use 17mm hex wheels

the cars are

Thunder Tiger - Tomahawk ST
Kyosho - DBX

i dont want to spend much cash if i can help it

the 17mm hex wheels are the same size as the stock wheels but look better ( lower profile so i can't change the tires ) so i want to go 12mm > 17mm without changing anything just slotting on a adapter,

if there are no adapters like that is there any 17mm hex ( wheel carriers ) not sure what there called that will fit on to ether of my nitro RC cars
 
thanks those will work for my DBX

is there any thing that will work for my Tomahawk ST as it uses these





it uses well some triangular adaptor

EDIT

ok so i disasembled the wheel hubs and this is what i found

The thunder tiger uses this hub system so i dont think i can use any adaptors or any thing


this is the DBX once i took off the hex i messured the shaft & its about 5.5MM thick & takes a standard cross pin is there any thing i could use


EDIT

looks like this will work but i still need something for the tomahawk ST

Pro-line makes some 12-17mm hex adapters too that are really nice. Thats what I've been using on my 100+ MPH Rustler.
