That's a nice apache Pierre, yours?

I think my apache wheels have slots for a cross-pin?

No it's not mine, the wheels have the same look.

I just went and took a look at the old girl. These wheels are definitely not the apache rears (nor fronts).
The Apache wheels are of the 3 piece design and the holes are closer together. Are all 4 of the same width: I'm thinking this might just be something from a toy car without motorization?

Could someone say what model these wheels would fit???

I've had this nice set of wheels for years - I believe I bought them "for Associated RC10T...", but they do not fit any of my 10T's.

The rears fit 3/16 axle, but with pretty deep offset, they rub the lower shock mount of: 10T, T3, JRX-T

The fronts accept common 3/16 x 3/8 bearings, but the bearing spacing is much wider than the front axles on my: 10T, T3, JRX-T
((the outer bearing sits way out at the end of the threads))

In Australia at least, that was sold as a Great Vigor P190. In other parts of the world, it may have been sold by Conrad and/or Megatech...

This link will help: http://www.rctech.net/forum/nitro-road/371579-any-ideas-what-model.html - ignore mention of Kyosho or HPI....

Very popular in Australia in the early 2000s as a cheap nitro RTR (with V8 Supercar bodies usually), although unfortunately, the GV-Hobby link is no longer any good for the manual.

the wheels are RPM Slingshots. I would take a guess at traxxas hawk for the fronts...they had a really long front axle. For the set they could be xxt or something like that but I don't have the experience with those.

I've got a NIP set for an associated if you need some dimensions on offsets to compare...

Thanks for all the suggestions about my wheels.
I may still have a Jr.T or LXT (I don't remember exactly) chassis at my parents' house - I'll have to see if they fit...

klavy69 - If I still can't fit the wheels on a newer Losi truck, I may want to compare to the specs of your Associated wheels. Thanks again.
