How to look for wheels with a certain axle hole diameter?
So I have been converting my toy grade Rc General Lee into a hobby grade car. I just finished my custom 4 link rear end, but when it was compressed the wheels didn't fit in the body. So I removed the old ones, but destroyed them in the process, as those crappy toy wheels are not designed to come off. I am having a lot of trouble trying to find replacements that will fit on the old shaft. Does anyone have any pointers or tips to find a wheel to fit a specific dimension? I am looking for wheels with an axle hole diameter of 3mm or less, and around 35-40mm tall with tire.
Thanks a lot!

You won't be able to look for wheels by hole diameter. No one specs that. I had a similar frustration with wheel offset, another spec no one lists. You need to find a hobby store and just start physically matching up wheels they have on the rack to yours.
You put a four link rear end on a toy Challenger? And under compression, the rear wheels rub. Well duh! What did you expect? The thing ain't a monster truck! 😉
