17mm hex/adapter for a 5mm axle?????

[rootar]

after seeing them on linc's Hyper-pede i looked and found Low Profile panther komodo dragon tires that are 5 inches tall (these are supposed to be very light and small for a truggy/Mt tire and mount on a 3.3" wheel (such as the Jammin's).Then i could get the truggy wheels in which ever offset i needed.......Lincpimp is helping me find out more on the tires and wheels.

I used to have Komodo's on a FLM Stampede I owned. They are very low profile, actually closer to 4.5" rather than 5". With using them, You should only need some wheels like this and your 17mm adapters you have:

They aren't a huge difference in tread pattern versus the Crimefighters. They should work well for that kind of track though if folks are happy with Crimefighters.
