Default Sx3 optional wheels

Hi I'm after using other wheels rather than the schumacher ones that seem to be made out of cheese and buckle really easily.
Now I know associated rears fit but the front don't, does anyone one know of another wheel I could use for the front of the SX3?

I'm using black cat wheels on my yokomo. So bmax4 wheels would work.

I'm using a mixture of Tamiya 4WD and Losi XXX4 wheels on mine (with the front hex conversion).

I'm mainly doing this as my last car ran hex's on the front/pin on the rear and I have a good collection of wheels with these fitments already.

But doesn't putting a hex on increase the total width of the front of the car? I've tried this with some kyosho hexes but the off set is different and makes the car too wide

The schumacher hex is intended to be used with Losi wheels so that combo should be fine. I don't know about any others personally.

Used to come with the sx and sx2, can't remember if the SX3 came with them or if I had them already.

The hex that Ian h linked to. I too thought it came in kits, but I don't know for sure as I haven't ever had an actual kit.
