GP with IMEX wheels?

[RC-nut]

Whats the best route? Can you change the hubs on the GP for 14mm or can you get the IMEX with 12mm?

I would also like to know the answer to this. I assume that you can buy 14mm hex's but I am not 100% sure. Haven't researched it yet.

check out the thread "What tires are you running on your GP?" Looks like all the answers are here.

Thread was in Feb. already figured out and installed different wheels on the GP. I did the 2.2 wheel mod.

If you order a set of 14mm aluminum Maxx hex hubs, put them on in place of the stock 12mm. Then get a set of Imex diamond jumbo maxx wheels. You can then take set of Clod tires(not the stock tires; the rubber compound is too stiff), preferably made from a soft or medium soft compound, you can stretch the tires over the Imex wheels. That will allow Clod tires to directly bolt on to a GP.

However, the Imex wheels are of a larger diameter, then Clod wheels are. So you if you don't mind the large wheel/shorter tire sidewall look, then go with that.

I ran it on one of my GP's for a long time. It looks good, but I decided to swap on a set of Clod wheels, with TTR wideners.
