Thanks JKRacing , found some info under Race prep conversion for AYK. Quoted from TamClub.
"Quite a rare mod kit from Race Prep for the early 2WD AYK buggies "

Only found rear conversion so far, but Im sure the front is the same. as parts are same colour etc.
Now which way to restore this?? I do have parts to make original. Not much info out there on this one, so far.

I think this one is gonna clean up really nice. Lots of dirt, grime. hardly any damage.

What's the width on those wheels...and are the top pair using bearings/bushings? If so are they metric?

They definitely look T&A wheels but I don't recall ever seeing a pair of wide fronts from T&A that used bearings. They almost look like wheels for a 2wd touring car.

Maybe they're not made by T&A. :?: All four of ireg's wheels are the same width and if those Kyosho tires are for a touring car I'd expect them to be 26mm wide...narrower than the T&A RC10 rears I have which are 31mm.

Measurements of the wheels would help...outside diameter, width, and size of whatever that black thing is in the center of the top right wheel.

Mystery solved.

It's RC10 wheels alright. even the front flange bearing of RC10 fit to the front wheels.
First I tried it to RC10 and it cant fit. Today I tried it again to the different car (rc10) and its ok. Now wondering what type of uni is in my rc10 (the first car) :D
