I would agree, looking at them closer it looks like maybe some one changed the centers with the truck wheels cause if they were pancar wheels they would have had the 2 mounting holes these dont have them hmm

If they are not tecnas, they are damn close. the shape of the center and the recessed screw holes are consistent with Tecnas.

Definitely LazerLite. They are on my short list of long-time "must haves." That car should be a belt drive with a 2-speed tranny, too.

Dude, it's a LazerLite Pro Stock drag car. They MADE those wheels and they came with the car.

It's possible lazer lite contracted tecnacraft to make their wheels.

Anything is possible, but if my memory serves correct, Lazer Lite was a machine shop producing RC parts, much like Tecnacraft and many others at the time.
