24mm wheel adapters?

[Semi Pro]

so does anyone know where i can get a set of 24mm wheel adapters to run savage 5t or baja 5b wheels on a TCS 1/5 savage flux conversion?

Been looking for a set myself.

I ran Baja fronts on a Revo over the weekend with 23mm adapters without issue, wheels stayed on and no sign of slipping on the hex hub.

But 24mm would be ideal.

i thought about wraping aluminum or copper around some proline 23mm but i didnt think they would last long

A guy at the lhs cut up a coke can and use the alum. from that. Apparently worked for him.

He was also putting 5b wheels on his poor nitro savage

hasn't seemed to be an issue, had another bash today same set up HPI Baja front wheels (fr/back) on 23mm hex, no probs at all, no obvious wear inside the rims or on the adapters, everything stayed where it should.

Doesn't the Savage 5T have 24mm wheels with a regular 8mm axle? The hexes may be tough to find, but it'd be the best way to do it IMO.
