    The wheels and tires should have come with the adapters. I bought two pairs of the wheels and sand tires for $15 a pair at a hobby store I went to once.

    I have no clue if you can buy them by themselves.

    I have those cheap plastic adaptors but they are for revo3.3 I have the 17mm hexes on the ERBE. I guess I could take the pins out of my 3.3 but kind of defeats the purpose. Mabye I should buy the Axial beadlocks.

    Brushless have you tried the beadlocks they look real nice and would fit. Just wondering if the tire would stay in @ 70+ Well speed runs or mabye not mabye a good bashing tire. Phaltlines are coming in soon. My 2 year old nephew sat on my lap this weekend and decided it was a good idea to hold the remote so I let him. You could guess the rest I now have 2 exploded phaltlines. 3s 5000 ******* 25c and a 2 year old LOL

    The only 20mm adapter I am aware of are the ones they supply. As you said just use the pins and then the plastic adapters. I have been using them on my brushless e-maxx and they have been fine for me.

    The losi wheels and tires are very nice though, even with the odd sized hex.

    I have a bunch of screwguns LOL Probally strip something as usual. I wonder if the LOSI 20mm hubs will fit the ERBE Shafts that is the question I seem to have a hard time getting answered. I mated a tire and rim up with the pin looks cool on the ERBE mabye I will give it a try but I think the plastic channels in the adaptors are going to strip the second i punch it

    Yes the 20mm hubs will fit the ERBE shafts, the driveshafts are identical to what the regular e-revo and e-maxx use. They fit fine.

    People have been using pin drive on brushless and nitro applications for years, they should hold up fine. Mine have held up on my brushless e-maxx with zero issues.

    Thanks I will try the pins for now. As I spoke to the shop near me where the guy stocks the other brand what a morron. He was telling me some crap that the 17mm hubs were no good for anything and they would strip out the stock traxxas hubs. I told him funny I have been running a pair of phaltlines for 3 years and they have been now temp used on my ERBE they are not stripped whatsoever. He was trying to sell me 23mm hubs. Anyone in NY knows this guy. I hung up on him. So I will let you know how the pins work out for now. Anything else I need?

    Yeah this guy has been around for years LOL if its not losi it is garbage to this guy. They have an indoor track I was saying I would like to try it but my ERBE would probally rip it up a little its a 1/10th scale dirt track. He was saying it does not have enough power to rip it up the way the buggies do thats where I hung up. Funny thing is there website is raceway .com the domain name is worth more than the business

    anyway bought these in white http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXGCZ2&P=7
    Pro line wablash 1 thing though can i dye them now that they have tires mounted?

    Yeah I got the 40 series but same look. They are really fat actually like 2 inches fatter than Phaltlines. I had to gear down as my slipper was red hot.

    I just picked of some of those myself, but am going to try the axial oversized rims on them. I have been using my badlands on the street, and brushless power equal fast wear.

    I'm looking at them as well. I'm keeping my badlands for the dirt. I want to find a better street tire.

    I know some nitro guys that seriously have no clue just how *bad* brushless is, and they actually believe that small-block nitros make more power than even 6S XL BL systems.
