New Traxxas Rims
 
I looked around and nothing found.
Anyone have a dealing with the newer style traxxas rims?
They look to be a 40 series / 3.8 style but unsure how they actually work.
Do they glue or does the beadlock hold them?
I don't see a beadlock for the back side.
Any ideas on these?
:neutral:

you must be talkin about the Summit beadlocks ,they are fake. the new wheels are 40 series and are glued the same way 1/8th buggy wheels are glued.

these are what ill be getting once my standard ones are shagged

Thanks!
Yeah I kept researching and digging around.
Kind of come to same conclusion.
Seems the tire selections have went way down recently.
I don't even see mulchers listed anywhere.

Any tips on gluing these?

I went ahead and put my order in for new tires.
I already got the rims here but no tires fit them.
I wanted the beadlock look to match body.
Besides the chrome always get destroyed on outside edge of rim.
I got the tires you posted( proline trenchers)
