If all cars from TLR and AE only had AKA size wheels and no other company made wheels to fit them, no TLR or AE cars would be race legal for ROAR and IFMAR events. Never going to happen.

Now if by chance the buggy manufacturers do persuade ROAR and IFMAR to change their current rules, and then only make wheels to the new size so preventing racers using the tyres they are familiar with, and changing the axles so old wheels won't fit on them, the only way you wouldn't be able to fit 2.2" tyres is if DE Racing, Proline, RPM, JConcepts, JC Racing, Fastrax, Ballistic Buggy, Schumacher and others decide not to bother making 2.2" wheels for an obvious market for them. There will always be several options to fit 2.2" tyres to buggies whatever the manufacturers do.
