RC Car Chew Wheel (12 mm hex)

thingiverse

My dog likes to chase my RC car and bite at the tires. I don't recommend allowing your beloved pet to do the same. But if you do, you may get more mileage out of your tires if you use dog chew toy tires. These wheels fit the Mammoth Tire Biter II dog chew toy in medium (5") size. They will bolt up to a 12 mm hex hub (think Slash, TRX4, Rustler, Stampede, etc.). You will need 24 screws and nuts to complete the build. I found that these (#6-32 in 1" length) fit well: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08K8K7WQ1?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Z8PDX6S?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details And be sure to use lock nuts and regularly check the tightness to keep the nuts or screws from flying off: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Z8PDX6S?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details As I said above, use at your own risk. I usually go pretty slow and don't hit the throttle hard if your pet is nipping at the tires. My dog is also 65 lbs and chewing on stuff all day long. So he has strong teeth. Other dogs may not. And again, this is probably a terrible idea, but if you want to save hours of design time figuring out how to use dog chew toys as RC tires, then here you go! And last word of caution, these will likely be a good bit heavier than stock tires. So might want to gear down or run a lower power battery.
