That's exactly what I was doing. It didn't feel like I was really forcing it before it snapped though. Your tip on the shim is noted. Thanks.

Hello again NomadRacer. Just to confirm, I need four 3/16 x 5/16 x 1/8 flanged ball bearings for the front for the JC Racing wheels right? Thanks. :)

UPDATE:
So I am looking to purchase inexpensive tires for the JC Racing Wheels for use mainly for running pavement and in the park. I have also recently acquired a RC10B5 with Proline Electrons. Those tires I have almost run down into slicks after a few days from running them at the formerly mentioned surfaces lol. I'd appreciate some recommendation for inexpensive and fairly long lasting 2.2 2WD tires. Thanks. :)

Any front rib tire would be fine, but you could also run dirt hawgs from proline on all 4 corners. They are kind of tall but work for lots of surfaces and last a decent length of time. On the jc front wheels they will be kind of balloony.

Not necessarily a tire recommendation but a place for discounted/sale tires that I keep a constant watch on... http://www.jconcepts.net/shop/clearance
