So are those wheel better plastic that stock? I stripped out my wheels on both sides this weekend. I have hot racing axles so that took care of he's problem. Just need wheels to handle it now.You can upgrade the wheel hexes to aluminium, that should take care of that problem.
Popular wheels and tires I know of are proline, duratrax and jconcepts.
I don't think the plastic on those wheels will be much better. But using metal hexes should be enough, unless your wheel nuts are backing off or something.
was wondering if anyone makes a better wheel and tire combo for truck. 2wd. A lot of road play. But my problem is I destroy the wheels. The hex area will end up round.
Are the any 17mm adapter sets that work with the ruckus 1 10If you have upgraded drive shafts and rpm suspension parts, you can use 17mm hex adapters and then use 1/8th truggy wheels, like I do. (See my profile pic). Hardly any ballooning, grip is good all round and they last forever. I mostly play offroad, so these might not be the best wheels for you, but the 17mm hex upgrade will solve your stripping hex problem.

Try to check and see if you're lock nuts are still good, If they are too loose and/or back out, that will most likely strip out the wheel. Also, The Ecx aluminum hexes are a better fit so that may fix it too.I have upgraded my 2wd Ruckus to aluminum hexes but cannot stop them from stripping. Does anyone still have recommendations for a better mouse trap to prevent this from happening. Would like to stay away from the 17MM if possible as it sounds like a lot of parts changes/upgrades.
