Jray2955 Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 What's everyone's idea of the best wheels to run? Bonus imaginary brownie points if they are white and look like the FG Marder wheels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninetiesbeard Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 People usually use silverback wheels with hostile nightmare mx tyres. Was using a mix of hostiles and uber super spikes but ive just ordered a set of brp knobbies which people use a lot as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ninetiesbeard Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 Elcon make some vintage looking wheels, and marder ones can fit with adaptors but the offsets might be weird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you grease them or anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitroholic Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 If you fit decent HPI or Hostile closed cell inserts, then no prep needed. Used to tape the tyres with gorilla tape to stop ballooning though. I found cheaper foam inserts tended to break up when they got wet and dirty.
