I want to first apologize for the noobie question, sorry!

I was searching for some aftermarket wheels for my Tamiya Trucks. I am currently swapping in a tlt axle to make my Tamiya Globe Liner 6wd.

I know there seems to be a lot of vendors on this forum but it’s hard to tell who still makes what.

My question, anyone make a set of wheels that have “hexs” or “pins” in the front so I can run 6wd? Right now I am just running a Tamiya inside dually wheel for a front

***Thanks in advance!;)

Here is my build thread.

what you have , is what some do . I do make wheels to go on the tlt axle for both , super single and standard tires . I have only stop for a few months do to an up swing of work in my excavating biz . I'm also taking this time to upgrade my machines . I have a vmc + a lathe coming by the end of this month beginning of july . I JUST WANT TO BE CLEAR , I have every intention of continuing to make my wheels .

Thanks you very much for your response. Cool, gives me some time to save some money too.:D

Got a link to what wheels you use and prices and etc? I am looking to upgrade my king hauler and globe liner.

Thanks in advance!
