Any stock sized tmaxx wheels will work, you will need velocity 6 wheels for big joes, the welds need s 50-60$ adapter to fit.

if all the chrome on your wheels has not come off and u want to save some $ try dying them.. use some acetone to pull whats left of the chrome off.. and follow instructions below..

Items needed, some of the 3 for 2$ Gladlock type containers, ya know the ones that are microwave safe. this is your dying dish....

and some dye

steps to doing it.

i set the wheels in the dish, filled it with water, since mine are 2 tone i had to do a little marking for my desire on the dish so i knew how much water was needed at a level area to do that. i used a marker to mark the position with wheels in the water, then took the wheels out and marked it with out wheels, will be a lower water line.

Boil a pan of water, then pour into the tub to the water line, mix in the dye (used a plastic picnic type spoon) and set wheels in. the longer they sit the darker they get.

in all they dye job costed me 6$ and i have no problem with pitching the dye pan so i know my son will not ever get to it.

so how do they look? Note: the blue color i have no idea why my camera did that, it is purpal... with a yellow/golden back, looks sweet on the savage.

I have also found that chrome dyes just as easy... as for my big joes,

also use a old pizza box to set the tub of water on, so if you splash or drip it hits it...
