OEM Wheels...Trash?

[Jshaff16]

So, Ive gathered these wheels are a funky size and nothing really works with them. I had one tire tear in a few spots so bought some (R word) knock offs...with wheels marketed for the baja front. Should I just pitch my oem wheels and stick with either baja front or Losi 5 wheels? Seems like that'll eliminate a lot of confusion and questions down the line.

For example, i also have a broken inner ring. The DDM's say they don't "work well" with the oem wheels. OEM's sound like trash worthy just to keep the show going

Yeah I run baja size wheels on my db. The factory bones didnt last long. Have proline trenchers on now.

 

[Jshaff16]

I guess that's what I'm asking. Do I really even have any reason to keep em? The factory wheels that is?

Still running factory. I want better, but will wait until these are trash. 2 years in they're still in good shape though. Might be a long wait

I do. Id say im fairly rough on my rc's. Just lucky I guess. I don't have anything to hit where I ride. Worst case scenario I tumble over fairly soft ground. 200 years of built up cow ? is good for longevity I guess.

So stick to Baja wheels and the 5t wheels these things are useless lol

 

[Seandonato73]

I still have my stock wheels with another set of tires on them. I have 5ive t wheels on it atm. The tires is what didnt last for crap for me.

 

[Jshaff16]

I understand that. But I also have a broken inner beadlock. So I'm so like wtf do I do situation lol

 

[Seandonato73]

Get a set off a 5ive t or a decent aftermarket set.

[Seandonato73]
