Vorteks Easiest way to swap back and forth 14 to 12 mm wheels?

[Wakko]

I have a few sets of 14mm wheels/tires for my Vorteks and also have some 12mm I want to be able to run. Is it easier to convert to 12mm and then use some sort of 14mm adapter, or is there another way?

Arrma sells an adaptor. You just replace the hex and pin on the wheel axle when the wheel is off. It's pretty easy, I don't know if there is a sleeve you can just fit on the 12mm hex. I bet you could 3d print one pretty easy though(?)
It would suck if it disintegrated and effed up your rims though.

Ok cool, I'll head to my LHS and see if I can find the adapter.

get proline 2.8 6x30

How would that help me?

Put a set of 12mm hexes on your vehicle, then use something like these adapters for the times you want to use 14mm hex wheels.

do you have a set of wheels in mind?

 

[Wakko]

I have OEM wheels/tires for the Vorteks, Granite and Big Rock, along with some aftermarket sets that are 14mm.

Removable hexes.

I have a big rock. 14mm ofcourse. Just got some 12mm proline badlands mx. I also didnt know what to do so I was instructed to get 6x30 to 14mm adapters.

Removable hexes.

Yes, but I already have wheels/tires. Not looking to buy more.

I see a few people missed this.

As mentioned above I also believe the easiest option is going to be swapping between the stock 14mm hexes and the Arrma 12mm hexes https://www.arrma-rc.com/part/AR310816

I think that's a good idea, too. Thanks, everyone.
