Those look like front wheels from a knock-off Tamiya Fox clone, I think Mad Racer built one recently. I can't recall the name, but I'm sure he can chime in. The wheels are cheaply made in that they're directional, but both L & R wheels are cast from the same mould, and look opposite on left & right, instead of both having the same direction.

Got my own set of aluminum wheels I need help identifying. Were said to be mounted on an RC10 with what looks like Mini-Mag hubs, but I've never seen Mini-Mags with multiple lips for rubber tires. Thinking maybe they're for a Yoke or Custom Works car? Rears are 1.7" or 1.6" and fronts are 2" or 2.1". Widths were listed as 1 1/4", 1 1/8", and 3/4".

I believe those were made by proline....but I don't think they made a matching rear.

I have two Kyosho trucks that I picked up with these parts, so I am inclined to think they are Kyosho. One truck was a big brute and the other the carcass of a double dare. Here are the parts I cannot figure out which kit they belong to:

Not an expert here, but those E parts remind me more of a Fox

"Quite a rare mod kit from Race Prep for the early 2WD AYK buggies "

Only found rear conversion so far, but Im sure the front is the same. as parts are same colour etc.
Now which way to restore this?? I do have parts to make original. Not much info out there on this one, so far.

I think this one is gonna clean up really nice. Lots of dirt, grime. hardly any damage.

Built this ages ago, still need to find front rims :wink: they are rare alright
