Welcome back @Don mercier! Watch the temperatures on your motor with those big tires. You might want to consider a heat sink and fan to help keep it cool.

I have a heat sink and they aren't as big as the granite tires or as wide. Only prob is they are 12mm hubs and i ordered the adaptors but they don't fit my axel shafts

They look like traxxas 2.8 talons. Horrible traction, especially when cold and thin sidewalls. Be careful if you run/jump in skate parks. The sidewalls like to get cut up when landing hard.

What adapter did you try? I've been looking for some 12mm adapters.

Here is part numbers for both the 12mm hexes and then the 12-17mm hex extenders

I can't find them. I looked the other day but seems on backorder everywhere

The Duratrax hubs are nowhere to be found right now. I think they said April for restock?

 

[roondog]

Thanks! Hopefully I will get my hands on some when they come back around.

Why don't the adapters you bought fit?

I have tires similar to what Don has they are Talon knockoffs but the rubber is stiffer on mine then on the Talons. They are 2.8 not 2.2. The plastic on these cheap wheels can be brittle and bust around the hex especially the thin spoke style wheels. But light bashing and no big jumps they should hold up.

Took my 12mm adaptors and had them put on a lath and mounted my tires today might need too trim the body a smidge
