17mm rim hex inserts help

[ArrmaK8]

Hi,
I have stripped my 1 month old rim, and its also happening to the others, I have tried fixing it with expoxy but it hold up like 1 day. Does anyone know where I can get this insert but instead of 24mm it should be 17mm.

I have the same problem with my Slash. It's really too much stress for the wheels and they spin out. Ruins a wheel with a good tire on it.

Proline makes some wheels that have replaceable hexes. But I haven't tried them. But I also haven't heard very good things either. Maybe other's he experience with it?

I can vouch for poor wheel hexes on the Prolines. They are prone to cracking, which in turn leads to the hex widening and becoming stripped out. You can get aluminum hexes instead, but now you’re spending more again. However if you already have wheels like the Prolines (some others have the same removable hex pattern) the aluminum hexes seem to be holding up now on my two rigs.

Actually I use Louise ST-Pioneer beadlock, I forgot to mention that...
