Had a minor crash today with my Notorious, split the wheel, about a 20mm split and the tire has worked loose. Repair or replace???
Can I get just the wheel, I've searched but can only get the whole set, Inc tires?
Thanks

Is this what you need?:unsure:

The 4x4 4s BackFlip LP's use the same 17mm hexed wheel as the 6s Backflip wheel and tire. Wheels are identical, the LP tires are just low profile tire versions of the BF's. The trick will be removing the old tire well enough, without damage, to re-glue onto the new wheel. I would only glue up a new set of tires and wheels at the same time. Just me. Might be better to get a whole replacement set from JennysRC.com to have spares. You will need them most likely. These are kit broken parts. And usually the least expensive way to buy most Arrma parts. In the future. Most of here at AF use Jennys.
I use BSI IC-2000 Hobby grade CA. A Rubberized Black CA.
That aside,
FWIW, I like the BF LP's better on my 6s rigs.

They get them back in stock often. Notorious and 6s Outcast use the same 6s Backflips. FWIW. Both essentially identical rigs minus the bodies. Parts and all. OC just gets the EXB upgrade treatment these days.

Get used to the cost of replacing RC wheels and tires. Part of the hobby. And it adds up.
Be gentle with them. Keep them Glued and balanced well.
Those BF wheels are rather strong, I find it hard to believe you had a "minor crash" there.:giggle:

If it ain't broke, you're doing it wrong.

Yup with both in my hand I cannot tell a difference.

Ok, I shall replace and have spares, makes sense to do that. Well... the car rolled several times sideways on the wheel edges, so no, not all that minor really 😬🤣
Thanks for info 😊
