YZ Rims and Acetone

Post by flustorm99 »

Hey all yoke peeps, need a answer on this topic. I am sure its covered somewhere else on the forum but I need to know which rims from the 870-94 YZ10 can be dunked in acetone, so realistically which rims are nylon and which are plastic. I know this is a rather vague statement as there are many types/brands of rims but info on the standard rims will help first of all...any info or links greatly appreciated.

I also have JC Racing rims as wheel but I am sure they are nylon as they are fairly recent and don't have the cheep look...not that that means anything.

thanks in advance

In my experience they are all nylon from the Team Associated YZ10 import through 1994 YZ10.

SO I have tried pretty much a lot of rims from 870-94 + Jc racing rims and all came up ok. I have a set in their now which are black spoked rims and I think were fairly hard to get so I hope they come up ok.... :shock:

thanks again for your insight
