Recommendations for 12mm hex to 14mm hex sleeve if any..

Hi everyone!

I've recently switch my 3s Senton to HR 12mm hexes, currently running some PowerHobby Raptors 2.2 Belted. I'm really enjoying them for off-road bashing and even some speed runs since they don't balloon.

I still have a few sets of 14mm tires that I'd like to use every once in a while.
These Duratrax wheels are 14mm, but come with a 12mm adapter sleeve, which would probably let me use all my other 14mm wheels on my 12mm hexes

While looking for more items like those sleeve, the only place I can seem to find anything similar is on eBay. I found these really nice alloy ones, but I'm not sure if they'd fit the Senton.

They look like they should fit, but I'd like to be sure.

Anyone have any experiences with such sleeves/adapters? I'm inclined to go with an alloy adapter, like the one from eBay.. but maybe a plastic 3d printed one will still work?.. Even thought about buying the Duratrax wheels just so I can get that adapter sleeve and use on all my other wheels.

I also have the HR ones.. did you keep your 14's!? How come you don't just switch back to them when u want to run your other wheels, it only takes a few minutes to get them all swapped, instead of burning some coin!?

I'm looking at it more from a convenience stand point. I don't mind taking stuff apart, spending time, wrenching on the Senton, but for just a wheel change, I feel it would take more effort/time than it should. Specially if I'm out, it would be less parts that my dumb fingers can drop and lose. I don't mind spending the money for the convenience.
