These custom 5-spoke wheels allow the use of modern Traxxas Anaconda 2.2" tires, front and rear, on the original RC10 gold pan RC car. The front wheels accept the stock bearings/bushings, and the rear wheels fit onto the normal rear hub drive pins.



The wheel offset was chosen to keep the stance as close to stock as possible, even though the Anacondas are wider tires:

The wheels are a 2-piece design, with inner and outer halves being held together by 5 4-40 socket head hex screws, so you'll have to tap the holes in the inner halves. There are no mating features between the halves, as the screws align the halves perfectly. Having the construction like this enables flat printing on the build platform, with supports only needed on the inside perimeter as shown:

I used black PETG for better temperature robustness than PLA. The tires do need to be glued, as per normal. But once installed, they look great and function really well. Enjoy!
