Looks like the ZR1 corvette to me but several used that same platform. The wheels narrow it down a bit, I think it and the Saurus used them and the Saurus had a metal chassis

Were sold to me as yokomo hubs, but they dont fit any yok axles Ive got. They dont match mx4 wheels either. Wondering if these are actual hotshot parts??

Next set here do fit Yokomo wheels. I just found them so havent messed with them at all. Very thin and light.

Those on the top are Kyosho to Hot Shot adapters. Bottom are Hot Trick Kyosho to Yokomo / Fox wheel adapters.

Team CRP wheels but what do they go to? My guess is something Tamiya...

They measure around 1.5" across the face and step down to 1.25". They look like they are the front and rear outer halves of 3 pc wheels though but thats just a guess along with the Tamiya guess.

Thanx for any info...

I guess you can tell by the easiest to figure out that I'm not really into Tamiya :oops:

Thanx though...when I picked them up I was doing a search for rc10 wheels and they showed up and without looking too intently at the pix hit the BIN...you live and learn I guess.

Any ideas what Kyosho this is for?
Think this was packaged to be in a kit. Doesn't look super important, but thought I would at least try and identify.

Thanks
Dang, you know after I posted I thought I should check ebay again. I hadn't looked in a few months. I just found the picture again today.

Odd thing is I have 2 packages like this. Got it with a bunch of other new Kyosho stuff for the store months ago. They definitely hadn't beed repackaged. WOnder if it was a packaging mistake.
