..Maybe a little off topic..
Does anyone know whether standard crosspin wheels do fit the rear 22 axles without using the hexes?
If so would this shrink the car's width?
Is anyone thinking about some adapters to be used to fit the standard crosspin wheels?
I do not want to unglue all my tires!!
Thanks, ciao

My understanding is they do fit but you will have to ream out the axel hole in the wheel as the new axles are bigger

That's right: the 22 axles should be 5mm.
My fear is that the hex contributes to the car's width, so that without the hex you loose about 4mm per side..
Let's see..

I finally have completed the building of my brand new 22!
I checked the crosspin / hex issue: installing standard Associated rims on the axle crosspin (removing the hex) reduces width by 2mm on each side.
I am wondering if it is possible to machine an adapter mating with the axle crosspin and reproducing another crosspin with a 2mm offset.
At first glance it seems impossible as the typical crosspin seat is 2mm deep.
2mm deep seat + 2mm offset = not enough material left.
Any ideas?
Thanks, bye!
