I have a t3 that has some beatup losi wheels. I purchased some new AE wheels and the installed axle drive pins are too long for the AE wheels! Anyone know where I can find a couple drive pins for AE wheels? I thought about cutting up a servo control rod that I have laying around. I haven't measured it yet.

Another question. Will Losi brand tires fit on AE wheels? I've seen Losa tires for half the price of proline tires...I'm on a budget with my new project

Thanks guys...I love this site!

you can trim up the axle pins you have to fit the AE wheels.

all truck wheels are the same size, 2.2" Pick up the tires you want, some good CA glue and have at it.

The difference between the AE/Losi wheels is the backspacing/offset.

That's good to know thanks. I thought I'd keep the longer pins just in case I ever want losi rims. I'll do some digging and see if I can find some replacment AE pins...

These are $4.00 on ebay compared to $15 for some proline tires.... Am I missing something?? The "bead" looks a little different than the AE proline tires so I hope they fit the AE wheels.

i dont think you can use the original 3 piece truck wheels with those, but i may be wrong..i dont have any to test
