I'm having a weird problem, after I fit my wheel on my Thunder Tiger buggy into the hex and I tighten the hex nut, it locks the wheel very tight such that there is no traction. I have to loosen the nut then the wheels move properly, whats the problem and how do I fix it?
 
Your problem is that the rim is rubbing on the hub. Is it the stock rim? Can you post a pic to see how to fix the prob.
 
You have the thunder tiger whoooo whooooo :cheers: we want reviews

but any way look at the back of the wheel is the hex on the back of the rim hitting the knuckle???
 
No I'm not using the stock rim, but a generic 17mm wheel hub. Its a TT mirage so dont get too excited, although it is a nice buggy. Ill post some pics.
