RC-10 Worlds Build - Trinity Point Blank Wheels/Tires

[Road Burner]

Hi everyone! This ebay find came mostly done I just added a Stealth trans, Trinity Point Blank wheels/tires, and some old radio gear. Some of the parts need some more dye, I used the liquid Rit and it didn't seem as effective as the powder. Is anyone familiar whith these wheels/tires? I'm not sure of the best way to glue them due to the strange bead design. I have a body on the way and would love to hear some paint scheme suggestions!

I would try an bright white with black and red pin stripping. That chassis looks terrific!

I was looking through my old magazines and saw the Point Blank ad. It mentioned that the wheels and tires had a unique bead design that made them better than traditional beads. So you may not even have to glue them.

The way the tire joins the wheels is the same as beadlocks, but a ring is not used to secure the tire so they must be glued in some way! I was thinking of trying a thin bead of silicone. It seems that it would be hard to use CA because it takes some time to seat the tires to the wheel properly. Thanks!

Thanks for the paint suggestions guys! I'm starting to get some ideas and I have a body and wing in my possession!

Thank you! A lot to do on this one yet, and possibly some rearranging of parts. I don't know if I'm pumping them out or have too many unfinished projects!
