like I said, the 40 series rims are bigger diamter as well as wider, so the MTR tires arn't going to fit properly, you can probally stretch them on, but you are better off getting new rims, before you cut the 40 series up, post them for sale, IMO your better off talking a loss on them, and buying the proper rims, then screwing around with somethingt thats not proper, and isn't going to work the same in the end anyway,

Well I'm going for a Repsol theme on my truck so I was browsing on rc campout and they have 4 kyosho wheels for under 20 bucks . I might get my lhs to order them if they're available here. I might keep my 40 series just in case.:GRIN:

Hey mate stick them on ebay and cut your losses and buy the ones you need. Or tell me how much you want and I will buy them if they have 23mm hexes.
