Which wheels to use on a DEX410
 

I have just finished building my first DEX410 after being a loyal AE user for years.

What wheels can you use on the DEX410? And do they change the track width on the car.

I use AE and Losi wheels as I have so many I do not really want to have to buy all new Durango wheels. They do reduce the width at the front by 2mm but I can live with that.

Just use Durango wheels! simples :thumbsup:

Only joking mate, most wheels fit to be honest. Ive used Associated, Losi and Tamiya wheels on test days. They prob do give a very slightly different track width, but the difference is so small you wouldnt notice it on the track.

I didnt know that, maybe thats why I feel the durango is twitchy. Might have to finally use my durango wheels that I have never touched.

I use Jconcept rulux wheels since I have loads of them with tyres on.

The front width is reduced with the durango wheels or without?

I think the rear width is the same no matter what wheel you use but on the front with Losi or AE the width is reduced. I did try with the old plastic front hubs to use some spacers behind some AE/HB hexes and then mount the wheel but this allowed the front hubs to fail. I may try this again as I now have the Tresrey aluminium front hubs and you may want to try this with the newer 2010 spec Durango plastic hubs that have the different sized bearings.

I just use durango as they are also nice and cheap. With the larger rpm ball cups on, when i use ae wheels and turn sharp the inside wheel scraps the ballcup. Will post pic today to show you.

The width is reduced when not using the Durango wheels, I found the Rulux wheels made it feel horrible off road, on-road, not so much of a problem.
