Can someone from arrma tell me why mojave wheel sets are hard to get. Is there a change coming or just a small problem with manufacturing these. Or they just don't last like any other tires that don't last. 6S addicted.

Just interested in grey set for custom job. Hobby stores always on back order when browsing i see.To be quite honest,,, I feel my Mojave tires/ wheels are extremely durable compared to most other Arrma wheels.... Many others agree. I run on 6s not 8 s and I still have the original set and a new unused set on the side.
The problem is that they are a unique size wheel and tire for the Mojave. And as such, there are no upgrade companies making a wheel and tire in that size. So Mojave owners must always buy these Arrma wheels/tires. If there were PL or Duratrax options, then maybe these Mojave wheels would be more plentiful?? IDK. Production or importing logistics are probably the main problem IMHO.
I'm in the same boat as you.
Do you have a Mojave and broke or wore out a wheel yet? Some had issues with the wheel hexes stripping out in the early released Mojaves. I never had any problems with mine.
BTW, I found that Duratrax 1/8 X-Con Truggy wheels (must be "Zero Offset" version) fit my Mojave just fine. No rubbing, everything clears, chassis , body and all. I have been using them. Love them also.
Always check with HH first. When HH gets them, then the LHS and Online stores will get them. But I think HH fills their sellers orders first. Not sure. Sellers place bulk orders, That's where HH bread and butter is. But those Grey wheels have been hard to get forever....Just interested in grey set for custom job.

Hey do these have the 17mm hex?^^^ You bet. Give a few minutes
Edit:
The Dtx 1/8 truggies are 145 mm tall and 65mm wide. The stock Mojave are 135mm tall and 60mm wide.
BOTH are Zero offset. DTX don't rub at all and I even have the Scorched RC inner wheel wells.
1/8 Truggy wheels and tires are universal in size for most brands, because they are track spec. So you could probably use PL's also. Just that some come in 1/2" Offset and also Zero offset. AKA makes great Truggies also. ( Pins and X-pattern tread)
The Mojave needs Zero offset. Nothing else will fit. I even tried 1/8 Buggy wheels in zero offset, but they are very undersized for the Mojave. (Buggy wheels will fit the Senton 6S) Get Truggy size wheels in Zero Offset in whatever brand you find. They must be track spec. pin treads or equivalent size sanctioned race tires. A common size.
To fit.

Good deal. I had been searching for them for a while and could only find 14mm or 12mm. Must be searching with the wrong key words.Yes, All 1/8 scale Truggy Track spec. wheels are a standard 17MM.
I figured it. I was searching for Arrma dboots fortress tires and wheels. Thats why I got different hex sizes. Ugh lol1/8 Truggy wheel would be in the tag somewhere. 1/8 (Buggy or Truggy) = 17mm.
1/10 scale is usually 12mm. (14mm is considered an odd/rare size)
dBoots Fortress tire search will result as Senton Fortress wheels. Different smaller size.I figured it. I was searching for Arrma dboots fortress tires and wheels. Thats why I got different hex sizes. Ugh lol

If you are still looking for a set of Mojave Wheels, I may be able to help you… but it’s not cheap, as it has to be shipped from Denmark
Let me know if you need help ?
