3 Piece Options?

Post by hardenedways »

I really like the look of the 3 piece wheels Associated used. I'm even more impressed with the functionality. I never did like the idea of gluing tires onto rims.

If I'm correct, there are 7 different 3 piece wheels that were used. (original buggy, CE buggy and RC10T) What are the sizes of these wheels? Are there any new tires that will (or definitely won't) work with the 3 piece wheels? Thanks!!

1st gen fronts are 1.9"...........very hard to find tires for these in new condition.
1st gen rears are 1.5"........very hard to find anything but old tamiya tires for these.
CE three piece are 2 or 2.1.......can usualy find thes at the hobby shop pretty easy.
10t are 2.2" found easily
