Compatible models include many from HoBao (MT, 8SC, H9, T8E, EMTA), HSP 94087, Kyosho, Traxxas (select models), Yeti XL, and Proline. They are not compatible with models that have different hex sizes or axle diameters, such as the Traxxas E-Revo\/Summit, HPI Savage Flux HP, Arrma Granite 3s\/Typhon 3s, Losi 8, or Redcat Shredder. Always verify your car's hex size and axle diameter before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow does the wider stance help?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWidening the track reduces body roll during turns, giving the car a more stable cornering feel. The lightweight aluminum adds minimal unsprung weight, so acceleration and suspension response are largely unaffected. The anti-dust cap nuts help keep dirt and debris away from wheel bearings during off-road driving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe O-rings are optional — they help keep the pins in place but can be left out if you prefer. Installation is straightforward: remove the existing wheels, slide the adapter onto the axle, secure it with the anti-dust cap nut, and mount the wheel. Make sure the steel pin passes through the axle hole properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCommon questions about these 17mm hex adapters\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo the adapters come with nuts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, each set includes four anti-dust cap nuts, four pins, and four O-rings — everything needed for installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the total width increase on one side?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach adapter extends the wheel out by 17mm (0.67 inch) from the original hub, so the total track width increases by 34mm (1.34 inch) across both sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use these on a 1\/10 scale car?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are intended for 1\/8 scale models with 17mm hex and 8mm axle. Compatibility with other scales depends on the hex size and axle diameter of your car.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a customer rating of 3.9 out of 5 stars from 47 reviews, these adapters are a practical choice for RC enthusiasts looking to improve stability and stance.
