Comparison with a Hpi Warlock wheel the revolver wheel is about 2mm smaller than the warlock it also weighs 5.5g less.

I decide to go with the racers edge foam on the right side of the pic a much firmer foam hopefully they dont come unglued

nice looking setup you have. I taped the inside of my bow ties when I put them on, ou will like the way it prevents the tires from ballooning up.

Finally had a chance to run them yesterday. The tape deffinately stopped the ballooning but seemed to make it more diffucult to do backflips as ive heard others say. It does however seem more stable while jumping. Only ran a tank before popping a diff doing backflips, didnt get off the throttle quick enough on one of the attempts. The Zombies deffinately grip like everybody says. Cant wait to get up and running again.

Hey DW, just came across your thread & now that some time has gone by, im wondering how the RPM rims held up for ya. I like the look & offset but only know of 1 other who has used them & he broke 1 fairly easily :peace:

Theyre holding up Great. I havent had any issues with the Revolvers and ive put a fair amount of airtime on them. I wouldnt hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

loving the setup. zombies are probably my most favorite tire. i like how the sidewall comes out alot. too bad they dont make them for 40 series wheels.

I wasnt even bashing that hard maybe 10-12ft of air but i was landing flat on concrete. Hopefully RPM will warranty the rims. Anybody have any experience with RPM warranty? good or bad

i got around to taking the other 3 wheels off and all of them are cracked. i would not recommend the RPM revolvers for big air.

Dang, wish I had seen this post earlier!
Just put the StableMaxx 17mm wheels (#82302) on my Terrapins. Got them for $8.99 CDN a pair so price wasn't bad, just removing them off the stock rims after baking them in the oven kinda sucked so not looking forward to doing that again.
They look cool though...
