I am most curious about the tires. Good pairs of 1.6" tires that look stock are expensive.

Are they printed or machined?

It all looks to be printed , the 959 is described as fused nylon , that's selective laser sintering or multi jet Fusion , either way printed , the tires are described as having divots on the back face from the production method or in other words support material , I'd presume they are resin printed in a rubber like material , it would be better if they just right out and said these are 3d printed parts and tires and used actual pictures of the tires instead of CAD renders . I don't have a problem with printed parts but there's a level of honesty in stating it is printed .
If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.

The other thing about the tires without seeing them would be the quality , if they are resin printed they will look pretty flawless from one side but if they are FDM printed they will not be anything like the same finish as injection moulded tires even on the good side and without seeing a genuine product I can't tell which it is :(

And my $80 for 2 tires is too broke to risk that... I wish them luck on selling them...

I think J Concepts list a 1.7" double dee tyre for the rc10 rim?, they are not as stock looking as original but price/quality is always good with them

I have those tires. Personally I think they're too thin and soft.

It fits their one piece, 1.7" wheels.
Always looking for new and interesting ways to waste money.
