Sacrilege or not?

Post by Synergy »

What's you take on it, like an AC Cobra built on an old Ford Sierra or just cool to see anything running round that looks like an RC10.

No sacrilege, but I'd like to see the chassis. Actually they look like killer RC10's. Maybe without the Tamiya on the tires though.

along with a funco or chenowth body. i'm just not sure if they are 2.2 inch. i've asked for that with the carson guys

I had a set of those on my Traxxas bullet, they're carson wheels, the are only sold glued onto those wheels, they cost about $40 for the set.
they are nice and soft too, not like the tamiya BFGs.

Check it out:http://www.fusionhobbies.com/Carson-2WD-All-Terrain-Tyre-Set-Chrome-p/c900028.htm

They also sell them in Black, the wheels I mean.

They are 2.0 sized tires.

hi technica,

be sure you can get them without the rims, too. there is for options:
1 pair front tires
1 pair rear tires
1 set tires on silver rims
1 set tires on black rims

just check the german carson website or ebay germany. pleny of them here, they are around 8 dollars a pair.
are you sure they are 2.0? front and rear?

regards from germany

I have no problem with running an RC10 body on another car. bitd, I actually ran a Sidewinder on my Fox because I couldn't find a replacement Fox body. I still have that body in a box somewhere.

That white and black car looks great.

That buggy with the chrome wheels on the other hand, I have two words to describe that set up: Pug Fugly. :lol:

Tecnica, that baja bug looks awesome.

I'd be up for a set of just the tires if I could find a source in the USA or even a vendor who would sell to the US.

Tecnica, I'd LOVE to see more hi-res pics of that bug. Looks great!
