I was thinking about the types that go on the granite. What would you use to widen the stance even more?

I used the Hot Racing 17mm hex adapters with the 10mm offset. Others use the Typhon arms. I think the new version is wider than the original though. Someone should be able to confirm or correct me.I was thinking about the types that go on the granite. What would you use to widen the stance even more?
I use both actually. Also the Proline MX 28 Badlands tires because nothing compares. Oh this is on my BRCC. If you get Typhon arms you need the turn buckles too.I used the Hot Racing 17mm hex adapters with the 10mm offset. Others use the Typhon arms.

Proline trenchers .I was thinking about the types that go on the granite. What would you use to widen the stance even more?
They used to make them with offset hexes. I guess they are going to keep making them as it says back in stock soon. Haven’t seen them for a while thoI like the looks of those tires. Noob question, is there a common or popular rim/wheel that those would fit that would widen the stance?
What is "1/2 backspace"?
Where the hex mounts on wheel is 1/2 closer.making them stick out 1/2 inch.heres with typhon arms,10mm he extensions, 1/2 inch backspaced mx28.Any tire and wheel recommendations? Working with the V3. What is "1/2 backspace"?
Use the Duratrax 14mm wheels, and you don't need adaptors or the high $$$ Proline Raid wheels. I run the Duratrax Lockups, and love them. But, out of stock. The SixPack MT are in stock, under $30 a pair, and a 'Big Block' tread like the proline badlands MX -

My lock-ups have great grip.Good grip?
The only thing I don't like about using the 14mm stock hexes is that the hexes themselves are junk. I can't tell you how many of the grub screw have stripped on me.
I don't run the 14mm hexes anymore. I've been running the 17mm HR adapters for over a year.My lock-ups have great grip.
I do have some SixPack, but in the ST (SCT) size. I run them on my Granite when I hit the track - the smaller tires make the Granite handle closer to a buggy vs the normal MT handling... The track I run most often is loose loamy, and the sixpacks do great.
The BLX hexes do look like cast pot metal. I have not stripped any, but then I have not had to take them off as often as you - you have me beat by a long shot on the broken axle count.
