DONE: New Closed Wheel Hex Nuts for my 1:8 4wd SCT

I have added a new part I really like. I didn't like the open wheel hex nuts on my Team Associated 1:8 4wd SCT.  The open hex nuts are pretty standard OEM parts from all the RC makers, but these type of nuts allow dirt and debris to build up inside the wheel assembly.  I was constantly cleaning the caked dirt and sand out.  Not to mention it did look very replica-like from the full-sized prototype LOORS SCTs.
The comparisons here show the difference---the open versus the closed style.  I really like the new look and they will prevent dirt build up now.  These are Fine Thread 17mm Hex Closed Wheel Nuts by King Headz.  And are very affordable
Looks great with the replica Method racing rims!
