looks great with the stainless hardware bro! Great video!

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Thanks Keith! Finishes off the look.

[@Make-Asylums-Great-Again]

Nice cow mat, I got a couple and they’re great.

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Thanks bro I appreciate it. They definitely make awesome products and make sure to use my discount code to save. It can be found in the description box

[@doughodson5939]

I love the color! I would love to try. My question is, do you continue to heat the water while the rings are in the dye? Or do you almost bring to a boil and shut heat off? I am just scared to melt the rings. Thank you.

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Thanks bro. You basically get the water to almost boiling so it’s steaming the way that I showed in the video and you keep the heat on it. Just monitor the temperature and make sure it doesn’t get too hot and after a while if you’d like you can turn off the heat and just let them sit in there

[@robertlauro5594]

They came out great I painted my wheels too and when I put the screws back I thought I did everything right now my truck is drifting to the left. Any suggestions thank you.

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Thanks. Hmm the only thing I can think of is check your steering trim. Could also be that your tires are unbalanced now for some reason.

[@SHAYEN-cd5qw]

Damn they look Awesome Chris they set the X-MAXX off real nice, we are way behind here in Australia and the postage from the USA is a bit to high, the Proline rep here says the end of next month so fingers crossed. Thanks for sharing that with us it's always a pleasure watching your channel 2 big thumbs up.

[@EVERYDAYRC]

I know Its hard being in your part of the world but at least you have nice weather almost all year around! Thanks for watching and your support! You'll get them one day my friend!

[@Wazza722]

Is that because of the steering, the tyres would rub on the chassis full lock?

[@rocbud43]

Mr Chris awesome video bro, you are always a great source of information. the beadlocs look outstanding my friend.. I will definitely be getting a set for mine..

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Glad you found it helpful ROC! Thanks for watching and your support! Would love to see what you do with yours!

[@danielbarraza7968]

Where did you order the stainless bead lock screws?

[@motododo4626]

Hey bud I just did exactly what you did but I'm wondering how tight should the screws be? I seen a proline video but it was pretty much no help.

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Hey what’s up.? I used the silicone oil on the screw holes to allow better tightening. I went with a snug fit. If you see the headlock ring start to deform from over tightening. 👍✌️

[@blackdawgrc8425]

What's up everyday rc! Beautiful video! Loved the proline badlands mx43 question? Can you died the rims too???? And what's the parts to died them? And the bolts you said in your video?

[@stephenanderson4549]

EVERY DAY RC , LOVE YOUR SHOW !!! I ve got one question I love that mini power screw driver for hobbiests, I have never seen before online or in stores where can I but this thing???? Thank Chris any think info will help .. Thanks Stephen

[@Klausibus]

Looks Great 👍👍👍

[@ReadySetRC]

Great job! Love that blue accent!

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Thanks for watching and the input! Im happy with them for sure~

[@behemothfan666ftp4]

ah the joy of undoing and re fitting 160 screws, the blue with the stainless screw look the part👍 if you don't mind me asking what we're you adding a dab of silicone oil to holes? I've never herd or seen this before, great video .

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Thanks for Watching bro! The silicone is to help inserting the screws and setting them at the right torque !

[@behemothfan666ftp4]

EVERYDAY RC Oh interesting I'm going to try this when I put some new shoes on the baja.

[@kirkleaman6863]

The hot water don’t mess with the plastic can you send me the link for the stainless screws please thank u

[@josephmoody8431]

Just Google search "M3 x 20mm socket head cap stainless steel screws". They are cheap. No more than $10 for 100.

[@jamiefox3498]

Cant see it on my phone what does he put in the beedlock screw holes?

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Just a dab of silicone oil to help insert the screws so they will all tighten at the same rate

[@diverseintrovert7577]

This looks so good, thanks for the video. I’m having trouble finding the info for the screw size to get. What did you go with?

[@EVERYDAYRC]

I showed it all in this video. Did you watch it thoroughly. They are M 3 x 20 socket cap screws. Thanks for watching glad you enjoyed the video

[@diverseintrovert7577]

I knew it was an M3 X 20mm, I thought there was another number for getting the matching thread count. 👍🏻✌🏻

[@diverseintrovert7577]

And yeah, I don’t know how I missed your screw section in the video🤷🏻‍♂️. Thanks again

[@robhinze8626]

Nice job on the stainless hardware and rit die! I see you have experienced with stock, mad max and these proline wheels. I just blew up a stock wheel and I'm looking for a replacement set. I've heard the prolines are heavy, have you weighed all 3 wheels? Rotational mass is a concern for me since I have a 6s model and haven't upgraded any on the drivetrain but run a max 6 esc. I'm worried that too heavy of a tire might start tearing up the drivetrain.

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Thanks for watching and your feedback. The prolines should work fine. They don’t balloon. Even on 6S should not be a problem.

[@robhinze8626]

Thanks for the reply!

[@jackchase79]

Jazzy looking rig you have there dude!!

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Thanks Good Brother~ !Thanks for watching and your support!

[@TeRniZ95]

Nice video

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Thanks for watching and your support!

[@Powerpickle68]

It is so common that people like ballooning tires and then complain when their tires don't last. Want to make tires last longer? Stop the ballooning.

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Very true! Thanks for Watching!

[@ShenRC]

Looks great man!

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Thanks! I appreciate it!

[@Blueknight1960]

Yea I know the video is old, I just ordered the screws from amazon, free shipping. I looked at another web site where the screws were from Rivercity Fastener Supply, they wanted $25 shipping for a $13 package, don't think so.

[@EVERYDAYRC]

www.ebay.com/itm/152537898229

[@EVERYDAYRC]

This is where I got them from. 17$ free shipping 160 count

[@hzap63]

Great video !!! I am going to try the red dye. A quick question?? Why are you using the 40 wt shock oil?

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Thanks for watching! Red should look great! Im using the silicone shock oil to lubricate the crews so its easier to torque them

[@jimbeier6478]

Red won’t work. It ends up purple. Go to my page to see how to paint them. It works great!

[@diruelas]

Hey man I was going to ask you are you running the new 1275KV motor or the original 1600KV motor. I have been following you videos since you purchased the X maxx. I have the original 6S X maxx and am deciding whether to sell mine and get the 8S version or spending $600+ to do get the 8S upgrade kit from traxxas. Great video I like the rit dye option once they come in stock again I'm picking some up for whatever option I go with.

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Daniel Ruelas still the original 1600kv thanks for watching and the support!

[@daredareist]

When dying the wheels do you need to use the entire bottle ?

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Yes and depending on how dark you want it you might have to use 2 bottles

[@daredareist]

@@EVERYDAYRC not looking to go that dark just blue enough to match the blue on the wide kit.

they look sick bro 👍

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Thanks! Im happy with them for sure!

[@999starboy]

do you pour the whole bottle of dye in the pot? and how long were they in there? thanks

[@EVERYDAYRC]

The amount of dye that you use Depends on the amount of water. Depends on how light or dark you want the color to be. I believe I used two full bottles for this. And when you want to dye something black depending on the amount of water you use you might need to use two bottles

[@999starboy]

thank you so much. trying it out as we speak but can't get the color to stick on test plastic pcs. Im trying to do green. bought the it dye as you used. only poured a little of it in the pot. and about 2 cups of water

[@RobertCarrizal]

how many bolts for mx43 i have got my birthday gift last month on Friday some putting my xmaxx

[@seanhatch4425]

Very cool video sir!

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Thanks for watching!

[@ClutchFirst]

That's very interesting that you could just dye parts of the rim. Does the dye ever fade? The truck looks good man.

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Hey MIKE! You can use this method for any light color dyable plastic! The more pores the plastic has the deeper it will penetrate! They will not fade but if it scuffs it might show the user color but like i said it depends on how deep the color penetrates! Thanks for watching and your support!

[@PITDAWGHYDROs]

What the reason for the sock oil be for in stalling the rings?

[@bigzxck]

that looks sick!

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Thanks for watching and your support!

[@paweszwed857]

What are you using the oil for?

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Is silicone oil was just used as an assist to put the screws through the tires to make everything lubricated. 😊✌️

[@KevW-z7z]

How many do we need for just the outside?

[@Wazza722]

Will these fit on a traxxas udr with the body removed?

[@badlilstang]

why the shock oil on the screw holes?

Helps lube it up! Lol. Just helps putting some lube on the screws so that when they go into the plastic they can all be tightened around the same amount and there’s no resistance.

[@bluemelsbluemel5944]

Do they make the hardware in black not chrome finish?

[@EVERYDAYRC]

of course. The hardware that comes with the wheels are oxidized.

[@deletedions394]

Sorry but stainless stell screws are rarly an upgrade. Ther usually A2 grade which means cheese steel. They easily bend or strip. Its a mod at best. But high tensile is always better.

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Stainless steel Screws for me is an upgrade in appearance and prevents rust. Correct they are not high tensile like black oxidized but I drive my vehicles in wet environments and it keeps the appearance of the vehicle looking good. If you go to River city Fastener and supply you will see that these are made of a high quality stainless steel and for the use on bead locks they will not have any type of durability issues. Most of my vehicles are converted to stainless steel and I do not have any issues. My sons Traxxas Slash Has seen plenty of abuse bashing and on the track and I don’t have any issues with stainless steel screws and on top of it all I am currently building a top-of-the-line TLR racing kit that is supplied with full stainless steel screws.

[@karlschweizer2554]

i have all i need to build a bad ass xmaxx i will for real buy the rims and tires they look great and will not blow up thats all need 8s thats crazy fast but the badlands are what i need and then build time i will not do my build unless i have everything i need its not a toy and i want it right just need the rims and tires and will go fore it

Once they get here tomorrow. Im going to take them apart. Im in the process of ordering the screws as we speak. Im still thinking if im going to dye them. I have to see if it looks good with my Red and Back themed Freddy Krueger show body. If not I'll dye them Red tomorrow.

[@kbno99]

How long did you soak the rims in dye?

[@EVERYDAYRC]

Keep water warm not hot. Maybe half an hour until I feel like the color is dark enough

[@ifgaming7549]

Why the shock oil on each tire screw hole?

[@EVERYDAYRC]

I put the shock oil on the screw holes to assist with tightening the screws. I felt that they were going in very tight and it was hard to get the right amount of torque on every screw so that would be like rings would sit flat.

[@jonathanjo4273]

How many bottles are u using

[@EVERYDAYRC]

I believe I used 2 full bottles to be on the safe side. Wanted a darker color
